Bug #: 30796
Summary: "Enable dialogs for inserting links, tables and more"
preference is confusing
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: WikiEditor
AssignedTo: [email protected]

Classification: Unclassified
The wording of the preference "Enable dialogs for inserting links, tables and
more" is very confusing.
It does several very different things:
* Turns the link button from just adding [[]] to a whole dialog.
* Turns the table button from adding a 3x3 table to a whole dialog.
* Add the Search and Replace button, that doesn't exit without it at all.
* (Something else that i missed?)
The Search and Replace should just always be enabled. It's a useful feature.
The table dialog can probably always be on.
The link dialog can also be always on, because people who like coding manually
(like me) won't miss a button that just adds [[]] and people who are less
technical would appreciate the dialog.
In short, this preference should just be removed and its functionality should
be on by default.
