            Bug ID: 50527
           Summary: Tagging articles using old markup on VE
           Product: VisualEditor
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: General

I note that if an editor uses old markup in VE (like [[link]]), it gets
enclosed in <nowiki> tags

Could we have an additional tag added to the Edit summary, (similar to the
Visual Editor tag we have?) which states somethine like "Old wiki markup"

That way, we can keep track of, and rectify all the cases where the old wiki
markup is used while using VE, and remedy it rather than clutter dozens of
article with nowiki tags which might not be removed for days
