Could you link to the task for this request? There is T128060 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T128060> from early 2016 ("VisualEditor makes it easy to create partially linked words, when the user expects a fully linked one") but I don't see you on there, and I want to make sure I understand your request. Here's how the linking feature works right now for adding links to words which presently have no links: - If you put your cursor inside a word without highlighting anything, and add a link, the link is added to the entire word. - If you highlight some text, and add a link, the link is added to the highlighted text. How would you propose this feature be changed?
