You could start by making the edit links permanently visible and clearly

Yeah, I've already requested this, since it seems like an easy win.
The mouseover behavior is really not a good solution - it was an
attempt to find a compromise between ensuring continued availability
of wikitext editing for sections while reducing clutter, but it
doesn't really serve that purpose well. It makes wikitext editing
secondary, which is unreasonable, adds screen flicker, and doesn't
translate to touch devices. We've been procrastinating for too long
finding the perfect solution for this problem, when really we'll
probably just need to take a marginal clutter hit right now. We'll fix
it.
