Recently this work has been prioritized by the Growth team, since the new features they're working on depend on VisualEditor. I added links to individual tasks to the description.

Announcements should be made locally. I don't think there's a need to make them everywhere.

• Whatamidoing-WMF added a comment.Nov 9 2021, 4:10 AM

Volunteers at zhwiki have expressed some concerns about the visual editor (this year, i.e., in 2021). I'm not aware of any similar problems at uzwiki.

All listed wikis have VisualEditor enabled, I'm guessing that we can close this task as resolved. But, can we? :)
