Enable adding signature with Visual Editor in Finnish Wikipedia Wikiprojekti namespace
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

The community discussion has been started in https://fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Kahvihuone_(tekniikka)#Wikiprojektin_sivulla_ei_voi_lis%C3%A4t%C3%A4_allekirjoitusta_visuaalisella_muokkaimella.

The namespace is dedicated for wikiprojects and would not disturb the normal workings of the wiki. The projects include editathons where first-timers would benefit from not needing to use wikicode

What exactly is "VE signature"?

The signature button in visual editor that is is grayed out by default (and thus can't be used) outside of talk pages. It would be useful however in "Wikiprojekti" namespace as there's many projects where people can show their interest by adding a signature.
