Frequently Asked Questions for the Editing Team

What is the Editing team working on?
See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Editing_team#Projects for a summary of the features we are currently working on.

If you want to request any work from the team, pcreate a ticket in Phabricator and tag it with “#Editing-team.” Using the "Editing-team" tag will move the ticket to the “Untriaged” column for the Editing-team Board. The Editing team will review the tickets in this column and pick up those that they can work on.

What if the issue is urgent?
Reach out to @ppelberg or @Esanders directly for help.

I found a bug on a discussion page for an article. Can you please check it out?

If you think you've spotted a bug, create a ticket and use the tag Editing-team as you would any request. For bugs, please also include steps to reproduce the bug so we can test the issue.

kostajh updated subscribers of T368910: Disable interactions with Flow content for anonymous users.

The community run https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Support_desk system is current Flow based. It seems important that community administered tech support for MediaWiki continue to be accessible to unregistered users. The work at T365846: Assist communities in archiving Flow/StructuredDiscussions boards should maybe prioritize discussions with the mediawiki.org community to ensure that technical support for MediaWiki continue to function well with Temporary accounts.

Well perhaps instead of a hacked HTML <form> cancel button, maybe have no cancel button at all.

Jdforrester-WMF added a project to T369585: "Cancel" edit button should not be frameless (does not look like a button): Editing-team.

Making this a frameless button was an intentional design choice to reduce the amount people click on it, because too many people in user tests were clicking on it and were unable to 'see' the more important preview and diff buttons next to it (a framed destructive button is very prominent).

It's readable for me but not sure if it checks all the contrast stuff, also some colours looks a bit too same to each other.

Okay that suggests notheme and skin-invert can be added effectively here which is good news!

@MusikAnimal could we add skin-theme and noinvert along with cm-mw-colorblind-colors in the mean time?

@Sjoerddebruin perhaps try this in your user CSS as a workaround - does that help?:

.cm-mw-colorblind-colors { filter: invert(1); }

So, the edit page is now enabled for dark mode. I'm unable to do edits without syntax highlighting and I can't keep switching modes all the time...
