            Bug ID: 52736
           Summary: VisualEditor: Show a message explaining how to edit
                    references when reflist is slected
           Product: VisualEditor
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: General
          Assignee: [email protected]

Reports such as
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback&oldid=568123469#I_can.27t_edit_the_references
suggest that the references list being present but not editable is causing
confusion for editors.

It would therefore be helpful for VE to display a message (popup? tooltip?)
whne the reference list is selected that explains how to edit references. The
text of this message should be set on a MediaWiki namespace page.

I don't have a suggested default wording at present.
