We want to track how much the syntax highlighting function is used. To understand this we propose tracking, if possible:
[ ] how often the syntax highlighting 'highlighter' button is clicked to turn it on and off VE 2017 wikitext editor and 2010 source code editor
* Needs a new event
[x] number of people have it activated (as saved in settings) in the VE 2017 wikitext editor and 2010 source code editor
* Join user preferences: `usecodemirror` x { `visualeditor-newwikitext`, `usebetatoolbar` } (Logic table is slightly more complicated because other editors take precedence.)
[] number of edit sessions that have it activated in the VE 2017 wikitext editor and 2010 source code editor
* Needs a new event
[ ] if possible, number of people with related gadgets and scripts enabled:
* [x] wikEd
* User preference: `gadget-wikEd`
* [x] Extension:CodeEditor
* User preference: `usecodeeditor`
* [ ] User:Remember_the_dot/Syntax_highlighter, Benutzer:Schnark/js/syntaxhighlight
* Not easy to check script usage.
Similar to {T258920}, collect on-going numbers to create a baseline and also see if this changes in the future with our work. Segment by:
* VE 2017 wikitext editor and 2010 source code editor
* Wiki, use the same four wikis to compare patterns of use: en, de, fa, tr
**Open questions**
- Is this already being tracked? If not, is it possible to track now or would we need to create the infrastructure for it?
