VisualEditor News #1—2015[编辑]

上次新闻以来，编辑团队修复了很多错误，并改进了可视化编辑器的外观，即将来到的Citoid参考服务，并支持复杂输入环境的语言。 Status reports are posted on mediawiki.org. Upcoming plans are posted at the VisualEditor roadmap.

The Wikimedia Foundation has named its top priorities for this quarter (January to March). The first priority is making VisualEditor ready for deployment by default to all new users and logged-out users at the remaining large Wikipedias. You can help identify these requirements. There will be weekly triage meetings which will be open to volunteers beginning Wednesday, 11 February 2015 at 12:00 (noon) PST (20:00 UTC). Tell Vice President of Engineering Damon Sicore, Product Manager James Forrester and other team members which bugs and features are most important to you. The decisions made at these meetings will determine what work is necessary for this quarter's goal of making VisualEditor ready for deployment to new users. The presence of volunteers who enjoy contributing MediaWiki code is particularly appreciated. Information about how to join the meeting will be posted at mw:Talk:VisualEditor/Portal shortly before the meeting begins.

Due to some breaking changes in MobileFrontend and VisualEditor, VisualEditor was not working correctly on the mobile site for a couple of days in early January. The teams apologize for the problem.

新的改进[编辑]

The new design for VisualEditor aligns with MediaWiki's Front-End Standards as led by the Design team. Several new versions of the OOjs UI library have also been released, and these also affect the appearance of VisualEditor and other MediaWiki software extensions. Most changes were minor, like changing the text size and the amount of white space in some windows. Buttons are consistently color-coded to indicate whether the action:

starts a new task, like opening the ⧼visualeditor-toolbar-savedialog⧽ dialog: 蓝色 ,
takes a constructive action, like inserting a citation: 绿色 ,
might remove or lose your work, like removing a link: 红色 , 或
is neutral, like opening a link in a new browser window: 灰色 .

The TemplateData editor has been completely re-written to use a different design based on the same OOjs UI system as VisualEditor. (T67815, T73746.) This change fixed a couple of existing bugs and improved usability. (T73077, T73078.)

Search and replace in long documents is now faster. It does not highlight every occurrence if there are more than 100 on-screen at once.(T78234.)

Editors at the Hebrew and Russian Wikipedia requested the ability to use VisualEditor in the "Article Incubator" or drafts namespace. (T86688, T87027.) If your community would like VisualEditor enabled on another namespace on your wiki, then you can file a request in Phabricator. Please include a link to a community discussion about the requested change.

展望[编辑]

The Editing team will soon add auto-fill features for citations. The Citoid service takes a URL or DOI for a reliable source, and returns a pre-filled, pre-formatted bibliographic citation. After creating it, you will be able to change or add information to the citation, in the same way that you edit any other pre-existing citation in VisualEditor. Support for ISBNs, PMIDs, and other identifiers is planned. Later, editors will be able to contribute to the Citoid service's definitions for each website, to improve precision and reduce the need for manual corrections.

We will need editors to help test the new design of the special character inserter, especially if you speak Welsh, Breton, or another language that uses diacritics or special characters extensively. The new version should be available for testing next week. Please contact User:Whatamidoing (WMF) if you would like to be notified when the new version is available. After the special character tool is completed, VisualEditor will be deployed to all users at Phase 5 Wikipedias. This will affect about 50 mid-size and smaller Wikipedias, including Afrikaans, Azerbaijani, Breton, Kyrgyz, Macedonian, Mongolian, Tatar, and Welsh. The date for this change has not been determined.

Inspire Campaign: Improving diversity, improving content[编辑]

This March, we’re organizing an Inspire Campaign to encourage and support new ideas for improving gender diversity on Wikimedia projects. Less than 20% of Wikimedia contributors are women, and many important topics are still missing in our content. We invite all Wikimedians to participate. If you have an idea that could help address this problem, please get involved today! The campaign runs until March 31.

All proposals are welcome - research projects, technical solutions, community organizing and outreach initiatives, or something completely new! Funding is available from the Wikimedia Foundation for projects that need financial support. Constructive, positive feedback on ideas is appreciated, and collaboration is encouraged - your skills and experience may help bring someone else’s project to life. Join us at the Inspire Campaign and help this project better represent the world’s knowledge!

Stewards confirmation rules[编辑]

Hello, I made a proposal on Meta to change the rules for the steward confirmations. Currently consensus to remove is required for a steward to lose his status, however I think it's fairer to the community if every steward needed the consensus to keep. As this is an issue that affects all WMF wikis, I'm sending this notification to let people know & be able to participate. Best regards, --MF-W 2015年4月10日 (五) 16:12 (UTC)[回复]

VisualEditor News #2—2015[编辑]

Did you know?

With Citoid in VisualEditor, you click the 'book with bookmark' icon and paste in the URL for a reliable source:

Citoid looks up the source for you and returns the citation results. Click the green "Insert" button to accept its results and add them to the article:

After inserting the citation, you can change it. Select the reference, and click the "Edit" button in the context menu to make changes.

The user guide has more information about how to use VisualEditor.

Since the last newsletter, the Editing Team has fixed many bugs and worked on VisualEditor's performance, the Citoid reference service, and support for languages with complex input requirements. Status reports are posted on Mediawiki.org. The worklist for April through June is available in Phabricator.

The weekly task triage meetings continue to be open to volunteers, each Wednesday at 11:00 (noon) PDT (18:00 UTC). You do not need to attend the meeting to nominate a bug for consideration as a Q4 blocker. Instead, go to Phabricator and "associate" the Editing team's Q4 blocker project with the bug. Learn how to join the meetings and how to nominate bugs at mw:Talk:VisualEditor/Portal.

Recent improvements[编辑]

VisualEditor is now substantially faster. In many cases, opening the page in VisualEditor is now faster than opening it in the wikitext editor. The new system has improved the code speed by 37% and network speed by almost 40%.

The Editing team is slowly adding auto-fill features for citations. This is currently available only at the French, Italian, and English Wikipedias. The Citoid service takes a URL or DOI for a reliable source, and returns a pre-filled, pre-formatted bibliographic citation. After creating it, you will be able to change or add information to the citation, in the same way that you edit any other pre-existing citation in VisualEditor. Support for ISBNs, PMIDs, and other identifiers is planned. Later, editors will be able to improve precision and reduce the need for manual corrections by contributing to the Citoid service's definitions for each website.

Citoid requires good TemplateData for your citation templates. If you would like to request this feature for your wiki, please post a request in the Citoid project on Phabricator. Include links to the TemplateData for the most important citation templates on your wiki.

The special character inserter has been improved, based upon feedback from active users. After this, VisualEditor was made available to all users of Wikipedias on the Phase 5 list on 30 March. This affected 53 mid-size and smaller Wikipedias, including Afrikaans, Azerbaijani, Breton, Kyrgyz, Macedonian, Mongolian, Tatar, and Welsh.

Work continues to support languages with complex requirements, such as Korean and Japanese. These languages use input method editors ("IMEs”). Recent improvements to cursoring, backspace, and delete behavior will simplify typing in VisualEditor for these users.

The design for the image selection process is now using a "masonry fit" model. Images in the search results are displayed at the same height but at variable widths, similar to bricks of different sizes in a masonry wall, or the "packed" mode in image galleries. This style helps you find the right image by making it easier to see more details in images.

You can now drag and drop categories to re-arrange their order of appearance on the page.

The pop-up window that appears when you click on a reference, image, link, or other element, is called the "context menu". It now displays additional useful information, such as the destination of the link or the image's filename. The team has also added an explicit "Edit" button in the context menu, which helps new editors open the tool to change the item.

Invisible templates are marked by a puzzle piece icon so they can be interacted with. Users also will be able to see and edit HTML anchors now in section headings.

Users of the TemplateData GUI editor can now set a string as an optional text for the 'deprecated' property in addition to boolean value, which lets you tell users of the template what they should do instead. (T90734)

Looking ahead[编辑]

The special character inserter in VisualEditor will soon use the same special character list as the wikitext editor. Admins at each wiki will also have the option of creating a custom section for frequently used characters at the top of the list. Instructions for customizing the list will be posted at mediawiki.org.

The team is discussing a test of VisualEditor with new users at the English Wikipedia, to see whether they have met their goals of making VisualEditor suitable for those editors. The timing is unknown, but might be relatively soon. (T90666)

Nominations are being accepted for 2015 Wikimedia Foundation elections[编辑]

This is a message from the 2015 Wikimedia Foundation Elections Committee. Translations are available.

Greetings,

I am pleased to announce that nominations are now being accepted for the 2015 Wikimedia Foundation Elections. This year the Board and the FDC Staff are looking for a diverse set of candidates from regions and projects that are traditionally under-represented on the board and in the movement as well as candidates with experience in technology, product or finance. To this end they have published letters describing what they think is needed and, recognizing that those who know the community the best are the community themselves, the election committee is accepting nominations for community members you think should run and will reach out to those nominated to provide them with information about the job and the election process.

This year, elections are being held for the following roles:

Board of Trustees
The Board of Trustees is the decision-making body that is ultimately responsible for the long term sustainability of the Foundation, so we value wide input into its selection. There are three positions being filled. More information about this role can be found at the board elections page.

Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC)
The Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) makes recommendations about how to allocate Wikimedia movement funds to eligible entities. There are five positions being filled. More information about this role can be found at the FDC elections page.

Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) Ombud
The FDC Ombud receives complaints and feedback about the FDC process, investigates complaints at the request of the Board of Trustees, and summarizes the investigations and feedback for the Board of Trustees on an annual basis. One position is being filled. More information about this role can be found at the FDC Ombudsperson elections page.

The candidacy submission phase lasts from 00:00 UTC April 20 to 23:59 UTC May 5 for the Board and from 00:00 UTCApril 20 to 23:59 UTC April 30 for the FDC and FDC Ombudsperson. This year, we are accepting both self-nominations and nominations of others. More information on this election and the nomination process can be found on the 2015 Wikimedia elections page on Meta-Wiki.

Please feel free to post a note about the election on your project's village pump. Any questions related to the election can be posted on the talk page on Meta, or sent to the election committee's mailing list, board-elections -at- wikimedia.org

Pywikibot compat will no longer be supported - Please migrate to pywikibot core[编辑]

Sorry for English, I hope someone translates this.
Pywikibot (then "Pywikipediabot") was started back in 2002. In 2007 a new branch (formerly known as "rewrite", now called "core") was started from scratch using the MediaWiki API. The developers of Pywikibot have decided to stop supporting the compat version of Pywikibot due to bad performance and architectural errors that make it hard to update, compared to core. If you are using pywikibot compat it is likely your code will break due to upcoming MediaWiki API changes (e.g. T101524). It is highly recommended you migrate to the core framework. There is a migration guide, and please contact us if you have any problem.

There is an upcoming MediaWiki API breaking change that compat will not be updated for. If your bot's name is in this list, your bot will most likely break.

Thank you,
The Pywikibot development team, 19:30, 5 June 2015 (UTC)

维基数据：对来自任意项的数据访问即将推出[编辑]

（抱歉以英语书写）

当我们在维基百科和其他姊妹计划上使用来自维基数据的数据时，目前有一个限制阻碍了一些用途：数据只可以从页面对应的项访问。因此，举个例子，维基百科条目“柏林”只可以从维基数据有关柏林的项获取数据，但不能从有关德国的项获取数据。这里存在技术问题。我们现在正在移除这项限制。现已在一些项目上完成相关工作。您的项目是接下来几个中的一个：

2015年6月11日：所有维基语录、所有剩余的维基导游
2015年6月15日：维基百科：阿拉伯语、加泰罗尼亚语、西班牙语、匈牙利语、韩语、罗马尼亚语、乌克兰语和越南语

我们邀请您尝试此新功能，如果您是很多一直在等待这项功能的人之一的话。如果您对此有技术问题，欢迎到d:Wikidata:Contact the development team询问。

以下是一旦启用，如何使用它的说明：

解析器函数：通过{{#property:P36|from=Q183}}以从有关德国的项获取首都相关内容
Lua：请参见mw:Extension:Wikibase Client/Lua

我祝愿这项工作将对您有所帮助，并允许您在维基数据的帮助下做很多有趣的事情。

VisualEditor News #3—2015[编辑]

你知道嗎？

當你點擊某個條目中的一個連結時，你現在可以看到更多資訊：

連結工具已經被重新設計了：

現在連結外部與內部的頁面是以不同的標籤頁顯示了。用户指南有更多关于如何使用可视化编辑器的信息。

在上一次電子報之後，編輯團隊已經創建了提供為連結或引用功能的新介面，同時也修正了許多的臭蟲並且改變了一些設計元素。有些臭蟲有影響到以行動設備使用可視化編輯器的用戶。狀況報告已經貼到了mediawiki.org上頭。四月到六月的工作清單可以在Phabricator上找到。

在英文維基百科已經完成第一期可視化編輯器對新手編輯的效果測試。在這項測試中，一半的新註冊使用者會預設使用可視化編輯器進行編輯，另外一半則否。這項研究的主要目的是了解哪一群團體更會去編輯並且產出有用、不會被回退的貢獻內容。初步的研究結果將會在本月底發佈於元維基頁面。

近日改進功能[编辑]

Auto-fill features for citations are available at a few Wikipedias through the citoid service. Citoid takes a URL or DOI for a reliable source, and returns a pre-filled, pre-formatted bibliographic citation. If Citoid is enabled on your wiki, then the design of the citation workflow changed during May. All citations are now created inside a single tool. Inside that tool, choose the tab you want (⧼citoid-citeFromIDDialog-mode-auto⧽, ⧼citoid-citeFromIDDialog-mode-manual⧽, or ⧼citoid-citeFromIDDialog-mode-reuse⧽). The cite button is now labeled with the word "⧼visualeditor-toolbar-cite-label⧽" rather than a book icon, and the autofill citation dialog now has a more meaningful label, "⧼Citoid-citeFromIDDialog-lookup-button⧽", for the submit button.

The link tool has been redesigned based on feedback from Wikipedia editors and user testing. It now has two separate sections: one for links to articles and one for external links. When you select a link, its pop-up context menu shows the name of the linked page, a thumbnail image from the linked page, Wikidata's description, and appropriate icons for disambiguation pages, redirect pages and empty pages (where applicable). Search results have been reduced to the first five pages. Several bugs were fixed, including a dark highlight that appeared over the first match in the link inspector. (T98085)

The special character inserter in VisualEditor now uses the same special character list as the wikitext editor. Admins at each wiki can also create a custom section for frequently used characters at the top of the list. Please read the instructions for customizing the list at mediawiki.org. Also, there is now a tooltip to describing each character in the special character inserter. (T70425)

Several improvements have been made to templates. When you search for a template to insert, the list of results now contains descriptions of the templates. The parameter list inside the template dialog now remains open after inserting a parameter from the list, so that users don’t need to click on "⧼visualeditor-dialog-transclusion-add-param⧽" each time they want to add another parameter. (T95696) The team added a new property for TemplateData, "示例值", for template parameters. This optional, translatable property will show up when there is text describing how to use that parameter. (T53049)

The design of the main toolbar and several other elements have changed slightly, to be consistent with the MediaWiki theme. In the Vector skin, individual items in the menu are separated visually by pale gray bars. Buttons and menus on the toolbar can now contain both an icon and a text label, rather than just one or the other. This new design feature is being used for the cite button on wikis where the Citoid service is enabled.

The team has released a long-desired improvement to the handling of non-existent images. If a non-existent image is linked in an article, then it is now visible in VisualEditor and can be selected, edited, replaced, or removed.

HTTPS[编辑]

嗨，各位好。

過去幾年來，維基媒體基金會持續致力於讓所有使用者都以HTTPS作為預設開啟的連線方式（包含未註冊的使用者），以讓維基計劃的讀者與編者享有更好的隱私與安全性。由於必須考量到許多不同的面向，這花了很長的一段時間才完成。我們的伺服器之前一直還無法處理HTTPS。維基媒體基金會有時候必須思考如何平衡各種彼此有所衝突的目標。

強制HTTPS已經運用於所有的維基媒體計畫之中。可能各位已經有注意到這件事，上週有一些語言的維基百科已經轉換到HTTPS，當時便有先行通知會受到影響的相關社群。

大部份的維基媒體計畫編輯者應該完全不會受到影響。如果你是以註冊帳戶進行編輯，你大概早就必須要透過HTTPS來登入。我們將會持續關注相關事項順利運作。如果在這項變更後你遭遇到了任何錯誤或者是你有疑惑想詢問，歡迎跟我們聯繫。

Proposal to create PNG thumbnails of static GIF images[编辑]

The thumbnail of this gif is of really bad quality.

How a PNG thumb of this GIF would look like

There is a proposal at the Commons Village Pump requesting feedback about the thumbnails of static GIF images: It states that static GIF files should have their thumbnails created in PNG. The advantages of PNG over GIF would be visible especially with GIF images using an alpha channel. (compare the thumbnails on the side)

This change would affect all wikis, so if you support/oppose or want to give general feedback/concerns, please post them to the proposal page. Thank you. --McZusatz (talk) & MediaWiki message delivery（讨论） 2015年7月24日 (五) 05:07 (UTC)[回复]

What does a Healthy Community look like to you?[编辑]

Hi,
The Community Engagement department at the Wikimedia Foundation has launched a new learning campaign. The WMF wants to record community impressions about what makes a healthy online community.

维基媒体国际会议[编辑]

可視化編輯器編輯器開發團隊參與了2015年在墨西哥市的維基媒體國際會議。在那邊，團隊成員參與了黑客松並且也與許多的個人或團體用戶見上一面。團隊成員同時也發表了多場可視化編輯器以及編輯的未來發展的相關講演。

在会议期间，我们宣布了可视化编辑器2015年翻译马拉松大赛的获胜者。我们热烈祝贺以下用户获胜：Halan-tul、Renessaince、जनक राज भट्ट (Janak Bhatta)、Vahe Gharakhanyan、Warrakkk和Eduardogobi。

对于‘界面消息'（可在 translatewiki.net 翻译），我们看到了42种语言的主动改进。在翻译马拉松之前，跨语言的平均进度是56.5%，而在此之后则是78.2%，增长了21.7%。详细情况是：萨哈语从12.2%跃升至94.2%；巴西葡萄牙语从50.6%开始直接100%完成；Taraškievica语则从44.9%增长至85.3%；Doteli语从1.3%增长至41.2%。另外，在翻译马拉松前，消息的1.7%曾被告知已过时，而在结束后，这一比例则变成0.8%，下降了0.9%。

对于‘文档消息'（位于 mediawiki.org），我们看到了24种语言的主动改进。在翻译马拉松之前，跨语言的平均进度是26.6%，而在此之后则是46.9%，增长了20.3%。有3种语言做出了显著改进。亚美尼亚语从1%进步到99%；瑞典语从21%进步到99%；以及巴西葡萄牙语从34%进步到83%。过时翻译从此前的8.4%下降到4.8%，下降了3.6%。

我們公開了部分的圖表到翻譯馬拉松的頁面上，展示此次翻譯松的產生的效益。我們感謝翻譯志工的參與以及 translatewiki.net 的工作人員協調此計畫。

新的功能改进[编辑]

引用的自動填寫功能現在在個別的維基百科已經可以啟用。這個工具使用citoid 服務來將URL或DOI轉換成已經預先填好、格式也已預先設定好的引用書目資料。 You can see an animated GIF of the quick, simple process at mediawiki.org. So far, about a dozen Wikipedias have enabled the auto-citation tool. To enable it for your wiki, follow the instructions at mediawiki.org.

Your wiki can customize the first section of the special character inserter in VisualEditor. Please follow the instructions at mediawiki.org to put the characters you want at the top. In other changes, if you need to fill in a CAPTCHA and get it wrong, then you can click to get a new one to complete. VisualEditor can now display and edit Vega-based graphs. If you use the Monobook skin, VisualEditor's appearance is now more consistent with other software.

将来的改进[编辑]

The team will be changing the appearance of selected links inside VisualEditor. The purpose is to make it easy to see whether your cursor is inside or outside the link. When you select a link, the link label (the words shown on the page) will be enclosed in a faint box. If you place your cursor inside the box, then your changes to the link label will be part of the link. If you place your cursor outside the box, then it will not. This will make it easy to know when new characters will be added to the link and when they will not.

On the English Wikipedia, 10% of newly created accounts are now offered both the visual and the wikitext editors. A recent controlled trial showed no significant difference in survival or productivity for new users in the short term. New users with access to VisualEditor were very slightly less likely to produce results that needed reverting. 您可以透過觀賞2015年7月國際年會研究報告的影片來學習更多相關內容。能夠允許登入兩種環境的新帳戶比例將會逐步增加。最終所有的新用戶都可以自己選擇要用哪一種編輯環境。

让我们手拉手，一起工作吧[编辑]

Introducing the Wikimedia public policy site[编辑]

Hi all,

We are excited to introduce a new Wikimedia Public Policy site. The site includes resources and position statements on access, copyright, censorship, intermediary liability, and privacy. The site explains how good public policy supports the Wikimedia projects, editors, and mission.

Visit the public policy portal: https://policy.wikimedia.org/

Please help translate the statements on Meta Wiki. You can read more on the Wikimedia blog.

Thanks,

申请成为导入者[编辑]

虽然现在在zhwiki也不算太活跃，但偶尔看到那边存废讨论有共识移动的也想顺手处理掉。该了解的方针我自认为已经足够了解了。还有虽然是有个申请页但估计更没人看了吧于是还是先放这儿了。以上。--Jimmy Xu（讨论） 2015年10月2日 (五) 03:19 (UTC)[回复]

VisualEditor News #5—2015[编辑]

用另外一種語言閱讀 • 這份多語種電子報的訂閱清單

你知道嗎？

你可以在智慧型手機與平板電腦上使用可視化編輯器。

點選鉛筆圖示，打開頁面的編輯器。在裡面，使用右上繳齒輪選單來切换为可视化编辑。

編輯按鈕將會記得你上次使用的編輯環境，並且在下一次給你與上次相同的編輯環境設定。未來幾個月，桌機版的網站將會有類似這樣的轉換記憶功能。

你可以閱讀並且幫助翻譯使用者指引，指引中有更多關於如何使用可視化編輯器的資訊。

自從上次的電子報，可視化編輯器的負責團隊已經修復了許多的臭蟲，添增了許多新功能，也做了一些小範圍的設計更動。他們於mediawiki.org 網站上發佈了每週現況報告。他們的工作進度版可以在Phabricator中找到。他們的現在優先事項是改善像是日語和阿拉伯語的語言支援，讓行動裝置更容易編輯，以及提供運算式、圖表、相本以及上傳功能更豐富的多媒體工具。

近期的修正[编辑]

教學功能：當你第一次使用可視化編輯器時，它會要你注意链接與⧼visualeditor-toolbar-cite-label⧽工具。當你點選這些工具時，可視化編輯器會說明為什麼你應該使用它們。 (T108620) 除此之外，對新使用者的歡迎訊息也有簡化，讓編輯更加平易近人。 (T112354) 更多軟體中的教學功能也在規劃之中了。

連結：可視化編輯器現在更容易理解你要「幫某個連結增加一段文字」，還是「在連結的旁邊輸入一段跟連結無關的文字」這兩者的區別。 (T74108, T91285) 現在編輯器已經完整支援國際書號（ISBN）、PubMed唯一識別碼（PMID）、徵求修正意見書（RFC）的數字。 (T109498, T110347, T63558) 這類的神奇連結使用自訂的連結編輯工具。

上傳：註冊的編輯者現在可以在編輯的同時，上傳圖片以及其他多媒體檔案到共享資源。點擊在插入图像与媒体工具中的新標籤頁。你將會被引導到相關的上傳檔案流程而不用離開編輯模式。在最後，圖片將會被插入。這個工具目前限制一次上傳一個、同時圖片的製作者是使用者本人、而且用一般共享資源授權的檔案。在更複雜的情形下，這個工具會連結到進階的其他上傳工具。你可以將想要上傳的圖片檔案拖移到編輯器中。上述功能也將會在稍後可以於維基語法編輯器中使用。

行動版：在此之前，可視化編輯器只能夠在平板電腦上的行動版維基百科站台使用。現在，編輯者可以透過不限大小的行動裝置來使用可視化編輯器。 (T85630) 編輯衝突之前在行動版網站會造成當機。現在編輯衝突在不論是維基語法或是可視化編輯器都可以處理。 (T111894) 有時候模板或類似的項目在行動版網站上是無法被刪除的。因為一旦選擇了這樣的項目，會造成有些瀏覽器中的螢幕鍵盤被隱藏了起來。現在有開發新的删除鈕，所以這樣的項目在鍵盤隱藏下仍然可以被移除。 (T62110) 現在你也可以在行動裝置裡編輯表格欄位。

更豐富的編輯工具：你現在可以在可視化編輯器添加或編輯表單、音樂。(T112925) 還有獨立的標籤頁提供進階的選項，像是MIDI或Ogg音樂檔。 (T114227, T113354) 當編輯運算式以及其他的區塊時，在編輯時會顯示錯誤。也有可能編輯某些類型的圖表；未來將會繼續添增新的工具與支援更多的類型。

在英文維基百科，可視化編輯器現在是任何有創建帳戶者都自動可得。偏好設定鈕現在已經移到正常位置，在Special:Preferences裡頭。

未來的改進[编辑]

不久之後，將能在編輯開始後再切換維基語法或可視化編輯器的編輯環境。 (T49779) 在此之前，你只能從可視化編輯器切換到維基語法的編輯器。雙向切換的功能將能實現單一編輯標籤頁的設計。 (T102398) 這個開發專案將會整合编辑和编辑源代码標籤頁，類似於現在已經在行動版網站使用的系統。编辑標籤頁將會使用你上次打開的編輯器。
