I think that https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:V6bd8m6687tc4ta9 by User:Pelagic is a similar problem, but it appears to only be in some versions of iOS.

The mobile visual editor has a checkbox for minor edits. The mobile wikitext editor does not. @ppelberg, should the VisualEditor tag be removed from this task, and the description updated to specify that the problem is in the wikitext editor?

This is going to need a help page, the main purpose of which is to explain to local admins how to identify these templates at each local wiki.

Also in a Chrome incognito window while logged in to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:WhatamIdoing-test

I can reproduce this, in plain vanilla Chrome Version 75.0.3770.142 (Official Build) (64-bit) in my staff account, and in Firefox Quantum 67.0.4 (64-bit) in my volunteer account, but not in Safari.

Ilana, I'll ping the participants. We should ping everyone, not just the supporters.

• Show me how you work! (Just let me look over your shoulder while you do whatever you would normally do.)
• Please try out the Edit Cards and Toolbar Refresh on mobile visual editor.
• Please try out the visual editor. Lots of experienced editors haven't looked at it since 2013 or 2014, and are just amazed at its abilities. Suggest that they try deleting a column in a large wiki table. :-)

With thanks to @Trizek-WMF for doing the delivery work.

My account at nlwiki was created on 15 July 2013.

It sounds like we should be talking to @Catrope about this.

I don't expect to make any progress on this any time soon. However, if anyone wants to do this and has questions, please feel free to leave a message for me at http://mediawiki.org/wiki/User_talk:Whatamidoing_(WMF)

Saving dozens of tabs and restarting Safari seems to have solved the problem. Or perhaps it went away for unrelated reasons.

Thanks

First pass completed on Thursday morning.

I think we're done with this stage of this project.

They'll want to know when to expect the changes, but I think we're in good shape.

I can indeed edit the lead section at enwiki, on the mobile site, with JavaScript disabled.

Recommendations have been sent to the Editing team's mailing list.

Be me? I was editing on office.wiki, so that means Safari version 12.1 (14607.1.40.1.4) on macOS Mojave 10.14.4 (18E226). I think that changing the screen size resolved it. Also, sometimes when the toolbar was in the right place, the drop-down to switch editing modes was detached. I assume that was related.

Thanks!

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor_on_mobile/Usability_improvements was reviewed and improved last Friday. We can consider that project page {{done}}.

This is great news. Reducing the number of systems down to two will make writing the user guide easier.

So we'll end up with two systems:

We have three systems:

We also need to sort out the target/focus wikis, to have a really good plan for what to do. Ideally, we'll be reaching out mostly to active mobile users on those wikis.

Putting a link in the context menu would probably be an adequate alternative. It feels more discoverable, too.

What do you think would be a better way to handle a situation such as this where I was wanting to continue an open thread, not necessarily related to the completion of the task's description?

@Esanders, Izno's problem is going to drive me nuts. When there's an exact match, it needs to use that exact match, and not suggest something longer. If I've typed r, and the options it finds are 35 instances of r and one of Re-ping in my last 200 edit summaries, then it should definitely be suggesting r and not the other longer one.

Great feature. <3
Can we have a way to delete misspelled sentences? Thanks!
