VisualEditor News #2—2015
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
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
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, to see whether they have met their goals of making VisualEditor suitable for those editors. The timing is unknown, but might be relatively soon.

disadvantages to cipp lining:
My company has been installing 2 to 6 inch cipp liners for over ten years. We are not engineers, but we have perfomed almost every imaginable type of installation from pull in place to blow in place to upstream and downstream-even lining larger pipes through many feet of smaller pipe. The statement in the disadvantage section that CIPP cannot be cleaned with a drain cable, or "snake" is incorrect. Also, hydrojetting is not the only method of cleaning a cipp installation and can actually cause delamination of the very thin (1 to 2 mm)pvc coating applied to the fabric in order to seal it. The damage has not been shown to cause performance problems or blockages in the pipe. Also, either method could cause the seam tape that was installed to seal the stitching to come loose and cause a possible temporary blockage. It is easily removed bt the same methods cited. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dangpipe (talk • contribs) 03:44, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._John%27s,_Newfoundland_and_Labrador
Received a message from you .. .not sure what you are referring to "puffery" as you deleted the post rather than "editing" it. The information posted was and is factual. The Witless Bay Ecological Reserve is an actual park protected and managed by the Government of Newfoundland Parks & Natural Areas Division. It is close to St. John's and is often used to promote the City in campaigns by Destination St. John's (official Destination Marketing Organization for the City of St. John's). Gatherall's Puffin & Whale Watch is a professional tour operator (licensed by Gov't of Newfoundland & Labrador) and is one of the longest established tour operators. No claim was made as to a company / service / etc. being the "best" / better than another / or other such unsubstantiated claim.

Thank you for your reference to the various page regarding nature of the posts however, I do not believe that the original post violated the intent of the guidelines no more than the mention of The Icecaps or other privately owned for profit entities listed in the wiki. I am more than happy to revise the content if / where necessary however, the wholesale removal of it was excessive. Mgwhales (talk) 23:47, 14 April 2015 (UTC)


 * The tone of how it was written didn't seem very encyclopedic, and the additions of external links inside the added text also led me to revert, since Wikipedia has a strict external links policy. I would suggest using  tags if you want to cite sources instead of a plain external link. As for the tone of writing, I would probably suggest trying to write it like a professional essay that gives the details in a straight face, and I would also suggest keeping in mind the placement of your additions too. It may be better to add the info in its own subsection instead of mashing it within another. --I am  k6ka   Talk to me!   See what I have done  00:03, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

Untitled 2
I think it is possible. The artist in question, the group Bad Unkl Sista has been photographed and had their photograph published in Wikipedia specifically, their performance art at burningman. So I feel it is a legitimate addition to the discussion. If one was to choose to google this group, one would instantly be exposed to the community of performance art in the Bay Area. New York City is not the only important US city in the world of performance art. So, the current premiere performance artist of the bay, who has been active for nearly twenty years does seem to have a valid place in this list. I think the picture related to the event that caught the attention of rolling stone magazine is a worthwhile contribution. People who are interested in the topic would not be misguided by seeing a currently active, prolific name referenced in the Wikipedia list of performance artists. There is no strict criteria that a Wikipedia article must exist. Many lists on Wikipedia include references with both active and no active links. To exclude all references that are not linked to a Wikipedia article is a strategy that suggest Wikipedia alone has the power to define a topic. Yet, that is not wikipedias goal. Miss terese, thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Missterese (talk • contribs) 20:29, April 20, 2015‎


 * Please see our notability policy and, to check if the subject is notable enough, see the article wizard to test it. --I am  k6ka  Talk to me!   See what I have done  21:02, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

actually, in reference to notability, in specifically discerns that being included in a list such as the one we are discussing does not require the fulfillment of specifications for notability regarding the creation of an article. In fact, the only requirements to be included on such a list is that there is enough information available to verify the existence of the subject being mentioned. The notability guidelines you are applying are meant to be applied to whether or not an article should be written. I have no doubt the subject could easily qualify for an article, however that is completely unrelated to the inclusion of the subject on a list such as this. Fame is not required either. A large body of work and the activity surrounding the work is enough to be included on the list. Could you please tell me how this performance artist troupe does not meet the said requirement of notability that pertains to inclusion on a list. I understand if we were discussing notability regarding an article that I would need to support my side with much more evidence, but I'm not creating an article. The troupe exists, is very active and publicly included in the arts culture of a major US city. A regular performer at the largest museums and festivals in SF and the surrounding area, a producer of performance artist events and installations, literally thousands of performances over more than a decade, this troupe fits the criteria of notability required to be included on a list. How does it not fit the criteria? And again, referencing requirements of notability to have an article written about the subject is not a valid argument for keeping the subject from a list about performance artists. Miss terese. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Missterese (talk • contribs) 21:57, 20 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Before we include it on a list we create an article about it. Wikipedia lists point to notable entries that have an article about them already. See WP:YFA. --I am  k6ka  Talk to me!   See what I have done  22:12, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

Again, you are referencing the creation of articles. Please read notability guidelines regarding article content and lists. The content of the list does not require notability guidelines. The creation of an article and the creation of a list must meet the requirements, but the actual content only requires a verifiable amount of independent information be available. If you bothered to google the subject, you would see an abundance of independent information that is available to substantiate inclusion on the list and in an article about performance artists. The criteria applied to article creation/retention are not the same as those applied to article content. This is taken from notability guidelines. The notability guidelines do not apply to article or list content (with the exception that some lists restrict inclusion to notable items or people). The list I have added the subject to is not one that has that restriction. If you were to add that restriction at this point I would wonder why because if you bothered to research this topic and in particular the subject of Bad Unkl Sista you would realize that there is no reason to exclude this group based on notability requirements. Furthermore, wikipedias own guidelines states a very different criteria for the subjects of lists verses the creation of an article. Again, you point me to references describing guidelines for article creation. There are totally different guidelines for subjects to be included in lists. Please note the difference in your response because you appear not to be discerning the two distinct criteria and thus basing your actions on a false premise. I am new to editing Wikipedia but I am not new to Wikipedia at all. So, if this is your version of hazing, it is not appreciated and has no place. Again, please make reference to guidelines that are for the situation at hand: Notability and Lists. You can not apply guidelines of notability for article creation to my edit because I did not attempt to create an article. I know you know this so please do not persist to base your objections on the erroneous connection you have made. Miss terese. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Missterese (talk • contribs) 22:44, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
 * In many cases, if lists included people who don't and shouldn't have their own articles, they'd become arbitrarily long. Others seem to believe that List of performance artists is one such list; it has its inclusion criteria spelt out in an all-caps HTML comment (which should probably be changed for clarity to say "please do not add the names of people without articles" or some such).  Manual of Style/Lists requires that inclusion criteria be spelled out in the lead section, but I can't tell what position it takes on doing so by means of HTML comments.  See also list selection criteria.   ekips39 &#x2766; talk  23:37, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

It is Wikipedia policy, however, that usernames not be the names of websites, companies, or groups, even if the user behind the account is not affiliated with those websites/companies (see WP:GROUPNAME).

Support request with team editing experiment project
Dear tech ambassadors, instead of spamming the Village Pump of each Wikipedia about my tiny project proposal for researching team editing (see here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IdeaLab/Research_team_editing), I have decided to leave to your own discretion if the matter is relevant enough to inform a wider audience already. I would appreciate if you could appraise if the Wikipedia community you are more familiar with could have interest in testing group editing "on their own grounds" and with their own guidance. In a nutshell: it consists in editing pages as a group instead of as an individual. This social experiment might involve redefining some aspects of the workflow we are all used to, with the hope of creating a more friendly and collaborative environment since editing under a group umbrella creates less social exposure than traditional "individual editing". I send you this message also as a proof that the Inspire Campaign is already gearing up. As said I would appreciate of *you* just a comment on the talk page/endorsement of my project noting your general perception about the idea. Nothing else. Your contribution helps to shape the future! (which I hope it will be very bright, with colors, and Wikipedia everywhere) Regards from User:Micru on meta. — Preceding undated comment added 09:32, April 30, 2015‎ (UTC)
