Include Visual Editor extension on Wikibase.cloud
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

Our intention is to include extensions that are bundled in the Wikibase Suite release on Wikibase.cloud whenever possible. One extension missing from WBstack but present in the Wikibase releases is Visual Editor. This was added to the bundle during T276939.

This extension was added to the MW bundle with 1.35. It provides a visual editing experience as an alternative to the traditional source editor (no wikitext knowledge required). We should deploy this extension to Wikibase.cloud.

See also T284316 for more information.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Visual Editor is deployed on Wikibase.cloud and is functional

Notes:
When enabled in the Wikibase Suite bundle, here's how it was done: https://github.com/wmde/wikibase-release-pipeline/blob/main/Docker/build/WikibaseBundle/LocalSettings.d.template/VisualEditor.php
