Bug ID: 52141
Summary: VisualEditor: disable on pages it corrupts
Product: VisualEditor
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Initialisation
Assignee: krinklem...@gmail.com
Reporter: jay...@gmail.com
CC: jforres...@wikimedia.org, krinklem...@gmail.com
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
There are many pages for which VisualEditor is broken. In some cases, the page
syntax can be changed to avoid the problem. In other cases (such as nlwp's
largethumb, dewp dab pages, enwp episode lists), the design affects many pages,
and the only feasible solution is to fix the parser. While we wait for fixes,
the VE should be disabled on those pages known to be affected.
The set of pages to be VE-disabled could be a category, if you trust the
villagers..:-)
Or a title blacklist in MediaWiki: namespace so it is admin only
Or a regex blacklist in MediaWiki: namespace so it is easier to blacklist all
pages which include a certain element.
