VisualEditor/Feedback/Archive/2018/12

Post your feedback about using the visual editor.

If you have never provided feedback before, you can learn how to do it effectively. If you are reporting a problem directly on this page, please include your web browser, computer operating system, and wiki skin (usually Vector, sometimes Monobook). The feedback tool within the visual editor will include your user agent details instead.

You can use this page to tell the Wikimedia developers your ideas and issues about using the visual editor: this is the only feedback page actively monitored by WMF staff. The Contributors team welcomes your feedback and ideas, especially on user interface decisions and the priorities for adding new features. All comments are read, in any language, but personal replies are not guaranteed: the team will try and go through reports here at least once a week. Need more attention? Report directly in Phabricator. Please note that the Wikimedia Foundation does not provide support for installing VisualEditor on third-party wikis. Please report bugs involving Parsoid at Talk:Parsoid instead.

You may also want to read a guide to optimize the visual editor's experience on your site, which details work necessary on the community side (such as translating or setting up citation systems).

Yritin poistaa tekemäni mallinteen (yritys) artikkelista Palvelualojen Työnantajat Palta, koska en saanut sitä mieleisekseni ja koska Palta on yhdistys. Järjestelmä ilmoitti parametritarkistuksesta eikä antanut julkaista muutosta. Voisitteko poistaa mallinteen? Tihus (talk) 12:47, 2 December 2018 (UTC)

The user's good faith edits were prevented by a local abuse filter. The issue seems to be solved now. kyykaarme (talk) 09:30, 5 December 2018 (UTC)

Signature option at talkpages at gl.wiki

Hi, at https://gl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usuario:Elisardojm/A3GAL/Relaci%C3%B3n_coa_Fundaci%C3%B3n#Comentarios_%C3%B3_correo_para_a_Comisi%C3%B3n_de_Afiliaci%C3%B3ns the option of sign the text is greyed out. Could be possible enable that option at talk pages? Bye. Elisardojm (talk) 09:07, 4 December 2018 (UTC)

That's not a talk page though, it's a user page.... —TheDJ (Not WMF) (talk • contribs) 10:09, 4 December 2018 (UTC)

Ah, true, but, users can edit it with Visual Editor, and it works as a talk page... Perhaps the sign option should/could be enabled at users namespace... Bye. Elisardojm (talk) 18:39, 4 December 2018 (UTC)

Sorry for the delay; I missed this question earlier.

Theoretically, this could be done. However, at minimum, the team will want a link to a discussion that shows that the community thinks this is a common use of user space and that they support this change. If you have evidence of community consensus for this, then feel free to contact me directly, and I'll help you get a formal request filed on Phabricator.

Input of Korean letters to a single-clicked table cell

When typing Korean letters into a single-clicked table cell, the first one is always ignored. When I type "cat" into a single-clicked cell, all three letters are actually typed into the cell. For "고양이", the result is "ㅗ양이" with the first component "ㄱ" missed. Could somebody help? 慈居 (talk) 23:45, 13 December 2018 (UTC)

@DChan (WMF), does this sound familiar? Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 06:48, 22 February 2019 (UTC)

Yes it sounds familiar – @Doyoon1995 , are you using Windows and Chrome? DChan (WMF) (talk) 02:38, 27 February 2019 (UTC)

I am. I've tried this again and the result is "ㅗ양이", "양이", "ㅑㅇ이", "ㅇ이", etc, depending on how fast I type them. It wouldn't happen if I just copy and paste the same word. 慈居 (talk) 08:21, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
