• DevelopmentWord from John
  • To give this section some life, since the development team had their holidays last week meaning nothing really got done (let them have one week off at least), I'll say a few words. 2014 is a new year and thus a new start, over the last year Wikidata celebrated its first birthday which brought reflection over what Wikidata had accomplish. Therefore I want to use the start of 2014 to reflect what Wikidata can do. For my personal over view see this page. For the summary, while it is meant to be a weekly simple update, I feel this can be used a lot more effective to put across not only what happened on Wikidata but things about Wikidata on other wikis, I am hoping to start a section over this within the next few weeks. If you have any suggestions for the summary, feel free to drop me a message at meta or Wikidata. Thanks.

Cristallografia

Ho visto che stai lavorando al portale cristallografia: sarebbe una gran cosa. Nel frattempo vorrei cogliere l'occasione per chiederti una indicazione. Anni fa', non so se lo si fa ancora oggi, si facevano delle rappresentazioni dei cristalli riportando la posizione delle facce su un grafico circolare che indicava la posizione e l'inclinazione delle facce. Vorrei ritrovare sulla rete delle indicazioni e/o istruzioni per l'uso di quei diagrammi, ma non so come si chiamano né dove cercarli. Mi puoi aiutare ? Ciao --Massimop (msg) 22:05, 30 gen 2014 (CET)

Erano quelle, grazie. Mi auguro che tu possa lavorarci prima o poi. Ciao --Massimop (msg) 19:50, 31 gen 2014 (CET)

Bollettino di VisualEditor, n.0/2014

Grazie per esservi iscritti al bollettino di VisualEditor! Espandendo il cassetto troverete le ultime novità. La squadra di VisualEditor vi è riconoscente per tutti gli sforzi che avete fatto finora, e per tutto l'aiuto che ancora darete. Per qualunque feedback, compresi quelli relativi a questo messaggio, la pagina da utilizzare è Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Commenti. --Elitre (WMF) (msg) 21:22, 13 feb 2014 (CET)

Bollettino di VisualEditor, n.0/2014

Il nuovo strumento per inserire caratteri speciali in VE. Sebbene ancora in uno stadio iniziale di sviluppo, quanto visualizzato è stato già personalizzato dalla comunità italofona. Gli ultimi 4 caratteri tra le "lettere accentate", infatti, sono stati aggiunti dopo richiesta di un utente con frequenti esigenze di traslitterazione.

Aggiornamenti tecnici:

• A gennaio il team di VE ha continuato a lavorare sulla stabilità e la performance del sistema, e ha aggiunto alcune nuove caratteristiche. Perlopiù infatti l'attenzione è stata focalizzata sulla realizzazione di alcune importanti caratteristiche maggiori, e sulla risoluzione di bug. Adesso è possibile ad esempio modificare alcune impostazioni relative alla pagina, come la possibilità di visualizzare o meno l'indice e di permettere la modifica delle singole sezioni (normalmente possibile grazie ad alcune magic words); si possono impostare manualmente le dimensioni di un'immagine (oltre a potervi applicare una didascalia); è disponibile una schermata riassuntiva delle scorciatoie da tastiera, richiamabile tramite CTRL + /; si può sperimentare l'aggiunta e la modifica di una galleria di immagini con uno strumento al momento molto essenziale e in via di rifinitura. Si continua comunque a lavorare su una finestra di dialogo che permetta l'aggiunta veloce di note basate sui template, a ulteriori impostazioni della pagine e dei file multimediali, a importazioni relative alla lingua nella quale sono scritti i contenuti e alle lingue che si scrivono da destra a sinistra, e alla possibilità di modificare le equazioni. Il codice è stato aggiornato 4 volte. Circa una settantina i bug risolti dagli sviluppatori di VE da Natale a oggi; oltre una ventina i bug corretti dal solo team di Parsoid con un aggiornamento a inizio febbraio.

Annunci:

• Altre due office hour su VisualEditor: questo fine settimana ci sarà l'occasione di discutere insieme a James Forrester (Product Manager), all'interno di sessioni pubbliche su IRC ("office hours"). Per partecipare si può entrare sul canale #wikimedia-office su IRC o semplicemente cliccare su questo collegamento; basta fornire uno pseudonimo, inserire il codice richiesto, e attendere alcuni secondi. Ad ogni modo il contenuto integrale della conversazione viene pubblicato in seguito. Trovate ulteriori dettagli nella pagina su Meta, ad ogni modo il primo appuntamento è previsto per sabato sera, mentre il secondo seguirà poche ore dopo.
• Sempre James Forrester ha posto a tutte le comunità alcune importanti domande specifiche relative al nuovo strumento di inserimento di caratteri speciali (nell'immagine), per capire le diverse necessità e individuare degli orientamenti prevalenti che ne guidino lo sviluppo. Tutti sono invitati a fornire i loro commenti, nella lingua che preferiscono.

Ciao anche a te, lettore di passaggio! Se ti stai chiedendo come puoi fare per ricevere anche tu questa comunicazione, aggiungi semplicemente il tuo nome qui.

Kutnohorite ?

Ciao, Sbisolo, da reminiscenze ormai ventennali ricordo che nelle pubblicazioni in lingua italiana la kutnohorite era denominata kutnahorite (anche perché deriva dalla località di rinvenimento di Kutná Hora) e la kornerupina era detta cornerupina. Non ho pubblicazioni più recenti al riguardo perciò chiedo a te, più addentro alle novità nel campo, se sia il caso di spostare le due voci e lasciare il termine inglesizzante come redirect.

barnstar

Devo dartene una promessa da tempo per la disorfanizzazione delle voci di minerali. Dove la inserisco?--Alexmar983 (msg) 15:52, 19 mar 2014 (CET)

dice che non ho i permessi per modificare la tua pagina utente. Prima volta in anni che mi capita.

Io, Alexmar983 ti assegno questa barnstar per il tuo costante e organico lavoro di impostazione della connettivtà del voci di minerali. Centinaia di navbox! Mica pizza e fichi...

--Alexmar983 (msg) 12:59, 20 mar 2014 (CET)

Zincolivenite

Ciao Sbisolo. Grazie per aver contribuito a Wikipedia. Ho visto che hai scritto o modificato alcune voci, tra cui Zincolivenite.

Noto però che esse non rispondono agli standard minimi di Wikipedia, cioè sono voci con informazioni scarse e/o poco comprensibili.

È preferibile che tu stesso inserisca voci il più possibile chiare e comprensibili, ampliandole e rendendole conformi agli standard.

Per maggiori informazioni puoi consultare la guida essenziale, la pagina che spiega cosa mettere su Wikipedia e quella che spiega cosa non mettere. Se hai dubbi o problemi rivolgiti allo sportello informazioni.

Possibilmente, ritorna alla voce a cui hai contributo e intervieni tu stesso. Grazie!

--Yiyi 12:38, 20 mar 2014 (CET)

Be', ma le voci, anche se esistono i rispettivi elementi su Wikidata, vanno create con un certo criterio. Mi sembra inutile crearle per lasciarle vuote. Quando si avranno informazioni e tempo per creare anche solo degli stub si potranno creare. -- Yiyi 12:53, 20 mar 2014 (CET)

Ok per le voci che non possono essere ampliate perché ancora il mondo scientifico non è riuscito a classificarle completamente. Ma per quanto riguarda, ad esempio, la Zincolivenite vedo che sulla Wikipedia in inglese la tabella è molto più completa e sono state inserite due o tre righe di spiegazione nella voce. Quello che intendo dire è: se creo una voce e ho già a disposizione i dati da inserire la creo (anche se è solo uno stub); è inutile creare una voce adesso (lasciandola in uno stato non classificabile come stub) per completarla in futuro. -- Yiyi 13:11, 20 mar 2014 (CET)

Re:

Ciao, Sbisolo, è vero, pian piano sono arrivato alla Z...ma ho ancora etimi e info da inserire, debitamente fontati. Poco alla volta ne metterò altri. Preferisco che queste info stiano in una sezione a parte, per non ingrossare troppo l'incipit, anche se probabilmente nello "schema" generale di questo tipo di voci non era prevista una sezione Etimologia.--Eumolpo (πῶς λέγεις; = che vuoi dire?) 10:31, 21 mar 2014 (CET)

Bollettino di VisualEditor, n.1/2014

Grazie per esservi iscritti al bollettino di VisualEditor! Espandendo il cassetto troverete le ultime novità. La squadra di VisualEditor è sempre riconoscente verso gli utenti che oltre a usare il nuovo editor forniscono puntualmente riscontri e suggerimenti. Per qualunque feedback, compresi quelli relativi a questo messaggio, la pagina da utilizzare è Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Commenti! -- Utente:Elitre (WMF), 17:34, 8 mag 2014 (CEST)

Bollettino di VisualEditor, n.1/2014

Aggiornamenti tecnici: Sono numerose le principali novità dalla pubblicazione dell'ultimo bollettino.

Interfaccia e altre componenti

• La correzione del bug 59660 permette ora al sistema di salvare più velocemente.
• Quando si cerca di usare VE per modificare pagine protette vengono ora visualizzati informazioni e avvisi relativi alla protezione e ad eventuali blocchi utente.
• Nel caso in cui non ci sia abbastanza spazio sullo schermo per visualizzare tutti i tab (ad es. se la finestra del browser è troppo stretta) il secondo tab di modifica, Modifica sorgente, viene inserito nel menù a tendina che già ospita in simili casi tab come Sposta e Cronologia. Questo non si verifica per gli utenti che non hanno adottato la skin Vector.
• Gli avvisi circa l'utilizzo di markup ora scompaiono da soli quando quest'ultimo viene rimosso.
• A richiesta delle comunità interessate VE è stato attivato su wiki come Meta, Wikipedia in Interlingua occidentale, Wikinews e Wikiversity in francese e Wikibooks in portoghese.
• Su richiesta si realizzano le icone per la formattazione dei caratteri (B, I, ecc.) per le lingue che ancora non dispongono di quelle personalizzate.
• Tramite il menù Opzioni (caratterizzato dalle tre barrette orizzontali, vicino al bottone Cancella) sono ora disponibili funzionalità quali la creazione e modifica dei redirect, l'aggiunta di alcune magic words e la pagina di aiuto sulle scorciatoie da tastiera, alcune delle quali aggiunte da poco; inoltre, se si passa alla modalità sorgente dall'interno di VE, l'edit sarà taggato in tal senso. I cambiamenti alle categorie saranno visualizzati correttamente da subito dopo il salvataggio di una pagina.
• Le "slug", finte righe vuote nelle quali si può posizionare il cursore, sono ora più piccole e leggermente animate in modo da poterle distinguere meglio.
• È possibile vedere l'anteprima del campo Oggetto durante la revisione delle modifiche apportate.
• Si prepara il supporto a visualizzazione e modifica dei commenti HTML nascosti.
• Vengono adesso visualizzate man mano che avvengono le modifiche all'indice dei contenuti.

Template

• L'interfaccia dei template è stata ridisegnata; la modalità immediatamente accessibile è quella semplificata che elenca i parametri e le loro descrizioni (quella avanzata per trascludere più elementi è comunque raggiungibile cliccando su "Mostra opzioni" quando si è nella modalità base). La casella dei parametri è più grande e si ridimensiona automaticamente. La ricerca dei parametri non distingue più tra maiuscole e minuscole, i parametri richiesti sono caratterizzati da un asterisco, e anche quelli consigliati saranno presto individuabili facilmente in modo simile. È disponibile a richiesta delle comunità (bug 51734) un nuovo tool per modificare i TemplateData.
• Template, note, immagini e alcuni altri elementi sono adesso accessibili tramite doppio click o tramite la combinazione di selezione + tasto Enter.

Collegamenti

• È già attivo uno dei miglioramenti più richiesti dal lancio di VE, ossia la visualizzazione in rosso dei collegamenti a pagine non esistenti.
• I link alle sottopagine funzionano correttamente.
• L'interfaccia dei collegamenti ora informa se si sta linkando a una disambigua o a un redirect, mentre le pagine esistenti ma non indicizzate dal motore di ricerca appaiono in rosso per via del bug 54361.

File multimediali

• È più semplice modificare le immagini e ci sono più opzioni ora disponibili; le nuove immagini vengono aggiunte alla grandezza di default, impostabile anche per quelle già presenti nella pagina. È previsto in futuro il supporto per l'opzione upright, la cui rimozione è stata involontariamente causata da un bug lo scorso 6 marzo; anche se il difetto è stato prontamente risolto e le pagine affette sono state ripristinate, gli sviluppatori si scusano per l'inconveniente. Sono anche disponibili delle opzioni basiche (in pratica si ricorre al wikitesto) per l'aggiunta delle gallerie d'immagini.
• I controlli della modifica delle dimensioni nella finestra di dialogo delle immagini sono stati semplificati ulteriormente, e VE adesso supporta ancora più stili - ad es., le immagini senza bordo.

Riferimenti bibliografici

• Si lavora ancora alacremente alla nuova interfaccia per l'aggiunta dei riferimenti bibliografici e alla sua caratteristica più attesa, ossia quella di compilare template in automatico a partire ad es. da riferimenti ISBN o URL. Gallerie e liste sono state rimosse dalla toolbar di questa interfaccia per semplificarla; l'intero contenuto delle note, quando queste vengono riutilizzate, viene correttamente visualizzato; quando si copincollano dei contenuti nella finestra di dialogo questi perdono automaticamente la formattazione e altri elementi eventualmente non adatti.

Annunci:

• La prossima office hour con James Forrester è prevista per lunedì 19 maggio quando in Italia saranno le 20. Il team è impegnato in questi giorni per l'hackathon di Zurigo. Nel salutare e ringraziare lo sviluppatore Rob Moen, che adesso è passato al team Growth, ricordiamo che potete proporvi (o suggerire qualcuno) come Software Engineer per VisualEditor!

Ciao anche a te, lettore di passaggio! Se ti stai chiedendo come puoi fare per ricevere anche tu questa comunicazione, aggiungi semplicemente il tuo nome qui.

  • Hey everyone, it's rare these small sections come along but there is a bit of interesting news to get across which one line under 'noteworthy stuff' won't be the best for. For the next 6 summaries, they will be translatable at Wikidata. This is an interesting idea which was first proposed on the delivery page and on Wikidata-l by Base. This is purely a trial and if you all want the summaries to remain translatable, please participate! You can view the first translated summary (hopefully) here! Also sorry for this one being late :)

Wikidata weekly summary #132

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.

• Discussions
  • Zero error rate - help improve the quality of Wikidata's data

Sir Nigel Shadbolt, Lydia, Magnus and Sir Tim Berners-Lee at the ODI award gala

• Events/Blogs/Press
  • Wikidata won the Open Data Award by the Open Data Institute in the category Publisher \o/ (blog post by ODI, blog post by WMDE)
  • Tutorial: Create instant location based timelines using Wikidata queries
• Did you know?
  • Less than 23% of Wikidata items have no statement. Down from ~53% a year ago.
  • Newest properties: consecrator, Slovene Cultural Heritage designation, penalty, charge, judge, defender, prosecutor, defendant, number of casualties, deepest point, Desa code of Indonesia, Slovene Cultural Heritage Register ID, Catalan object of cultural interest ID
• Development
  • Continued work on LabelLookup and related code to further improve performance
  • Made it possible to show references in statements on property pages. (Remaining bugs before roll-out are issues with adding/editing/removing statements on property pages.)
  • Further improvements to sitelink editing (The edit toolbar now floats so it doesn't scroll out of the page on a long list of sitelinks. An empty row for adding a new sitelink is shown by default when editing to make this faster and take less scrolling.)
  • Further adapting of simple query code so we can get it to review at the Foundation again.
  • Lots of bug fixes all over the place
• Monthly Tasks
  • Hack on one of these.
  • Help fix these items which have been flagged using Wikidata - The Game.

VisualEditor News #9—2014

Lo sapevi?

VisualEditor è disponibile anche nella versione Mobile. Accedi e clicca sulla matita per editare la pagina. Clicca sull'ingranaggio nell'angolo in alto a destra per scegliere quale editor usare. Scegli "⧼Mobile-frontend-editor-visual-editor⧽" per utilizzare VisualEditor o "⧼Mobile-frontend-editor-source-editor⧽" per modificare il wikitesto.

Memorizzerà l'editor prescelto, e lo riproporrà la volta successiva che modifichi una voce.

La guida utente contiene informazioni relative all'uso di VisualEditor. Non tutte le funzioni sono disponibili sulla versione Mobile.

Dopo la precedente newsletter, il team di sviluppo ha corretto molti bug e segnalazioni e ha migliorato la funzionalità di modifica delle tabelle e per l'uso di linguaggi non-latini. Gli aggiornamenti settimanali sono pubblicati su Mediawiki.org. Note informali sono pubblicate su Meta.

Migliorìe recenti

La possibilità di inserire delle tabelle e cambiarne il numero di righe e colonne è stata appena aggiunta su Wikipedia. Funzioni aggiuntive, tra cui poter spostare le colonne, verranno aggiunte in seguito.

Per aiutare i contributori a trovare gli strumenti più importanti velocemente, alcuni strumenti della barra degli strumenti sono nascosti sotto il tasto "Altro", come "Sottolineato" nel menù stili.

Wikipedia in francese dovrebbe mostrare migliori risultati della ricerca per i collegamenti, i template e i file multimediali, dato che il nuovo motore di ricerca è stato attivato per tutti. Questa modifica è prevista nella edizioni in cinese e tedesco questa settimana, e nella settimana successiva in Wikipedia in inglese.

Il sistema "a pedone" è stato in buona parte rimosso. Dei bug in questo sistema aggiungevano talvolta un simbolo di pedone degli scacchi nel wikitesto. La sostituzione fornisce un supporto migliore per le lingue che non si basano sull'alfabeto latino, con un supporto completo auspicabilmente previsto a breve.

VisualEditor è ora disponibile per gli utenti che usano Internet Explorer 10 o 11 su desktop e su mobile. Internet Explorer 9 non è ancora supportato.

Le scorciatoie da tastiera per le opzioni nella barra dei menù sono ora esplicitate nei menù.

VisualEditor sostituirà il design attuale con un nuovo tema grazie al gruppo User Experience/Design. L'aspetto delle finestre di dialogo è già cambiato nella versione mobile. L'aspetto nella versione desktop verrà cambiato presto. Sei invitato a confrontare il vecchio design "Apex" e il nuovo tema "MediaWiki" che lo sostituirà.

Sono stati corretti molti errori per i collegamenti interni ed esterni. Il miglioramento della ricerca di Mediawiki ha risolto un fastidioso problema: se si cercava con il nome intero della pagina da collegare o del file multimediale da inserire, a volta il motore di ricerca non era in grado di trovare la pagina. Ora il link all'interno di un template verso una pagina che non esiste è visualizzato in rosso, così come avviene quando si legge la pagina. A causa di un errore, per circa 2 settimane, anche tutti i collegamenti esterni presenti all'interno di un template venivano visualizzati in rosso. Aprire un link auto-numerato come ad esempio [1] dalla tastiera lanciava l'interfaccia sbagliata dello strumento per linkare. Questi problemi sono stati tutti sistemati.

TemplateData

Il 6 novembre è stato abilitato su tutti i wiki della Wikimedia Fondation lo strumento di modifica veloce di TemplateData. Questa funzionalità era già attiva sulle principali 40 versioni di Wikipedia, e ora tutti i wiki possono accedervi. Lo strumento rende più semplice l'aggiunta di TemplateData alla documentazione dei template. Quando lo strumento è abilitato, si aggiunge un pulsante sopra la finestra di modifica del template (comprese le sotto-pagine di documentazione). Per usare questa funzione, modificare il template o una sua sottopagina e poi cliccare sul pulsante "Modifica dati del modello" in alto. Leggi la pagina di aiuto per TemplateData per maggiori informazioni. Puoi provare l'editor di TemplateData in una sandbox su Mediawiki.org. Ricorda che TemplateData può essere collocato o nella sotto-pagina di documentazione oppure in quella del template stesso. È possibile utilizzare un solo blocco di TemplateData per template.

Ora può essere utilizzata la nuova impostazione di valore automatico per pre-caricare un valore in un template. Questo può essere utilizzato per sostituire le date, come mostrato in questo esempio, o per aggiungere il valore più comune per quel parametro. Il valore inserito automaticamente può essere sovrascritto dall'utente, semplicemente scrivendo qualcos'altro nel campo.

In TemplateData si può definire un parametro come "obbligatorio". La finestra di dialogo dei template in VisualEditor avviserà i contributori se lasciano un parametro "obbligatorio" vuoto e non saranno in grado di eliminare quel parametro. Se il template può funzionare anche senza tale parametro, si consiglia di contrassegnarlo piuttosto come "consigliato" o "facoltativo" in TemplateData.

Guardando avanti

Il tema di VisualEditor prevede di inserire presto un'opzione di auto-completamento per i riferimenti bibliografici. L'aspetto della finestra di ricerca di file multimediali verrà migliorato per rendere la scelta tra possibili immagini più semplice e più visuale. Il team aggiorna continuamente la VisualEditor roadmap con dettagli sul lavoro programmato per il futuro.

La guida utente è in aggiornamento per aggiungere informazioni sulla modifica delle tabelle. La traduzione del manuale per la maggior parte delle lingue escluse spagnolo, francese e olandese è significativamente obsoleta. Per favore, aiutaci a completare le traduzioni in corso per gli utenti che parlano la tua lingua. Rivolgiti a noi se hai bisogno di aiuto nell'esportare alla tua wiki la guida tradotta. Puoi influenzare il design di VisualEditor! Comunica al team di VisualEditor quello che vorresti venisse cambiato nel corso delle office hours via IRC. Le prossime sessioni sono previste per mercoledì 19 novembre alle 16:00 UTC e mercoledì 7 gennaio 2015 alle 22:00 UTC. Puoi inoltre condividere le tue idee su mw:VisualEditor/Feedback.

Inoltre, la ricercatrice in user experience Abbey Ripstra è alla ricerca di contributori che le mostrino il modo in cui editano Wikipedia. Per favore, iscriviti al programma di ricerca se vuoi essere informato delle prossime occasioni.

Se vuoi aiutare con le traduzioni di questa newsletter, iscriviti per favore alla mailing list dei traduttori o contattaci direttamente, in modo che possiamo notificarti quando il prossimo numero è pronto per essere tradotto. Iscriviti o disiscriviti su Meta. Grazie! —Elitre (WMF)

Re: Zeolite

Caro Sbisolo, ora ci siamo? Procedura corretta? Non ci crederai ma mi sono accorto solo un secondo fa della tua risposta, o forse avevo già cliccato sul tuo commento ma non l'avevo trovato e quindi letto. Tutto chiaro, mi sta benissimo così, a proposito dei metalli pesanti. :D Ti chiedo come si fa a intervenire per correggere ORNOBLENDA in ORNEBLENDA nel diagramma laterale della pagina SERIE DI BOWEN. Qui mi sa che bisognerebbe proprio modificare alla base, cambiando la casella relativa nel diagramma di flusso. E' solo un piccolo errore grammaticale ma per me vale sempre la pena essere precisi. Approfitto per augurarti buon Natale! Ciao!

                                                                                                                    Oscar

VisualEditor News #10—2014

Lo sapevi?

La modifica base di tabelle è ora disponibile per VisualEditor. Puoi aggiungere o eliminare colonne e righe dalle colonne con il clic di un pulsante.

La guida utente ha informazioni aggiuntive su come utilizzare VisualEditor.

Dall'ultima newsletter, l'Editing team ha sistemato molti errori e ha lavorato sulle prestazioni e sulla modifica di tabelle. I loro resoconti settimanali sono pubblicati su mediawiki.org. I progetti futuri sono pubblicati nella roadmap di VisualEditor.

VisualEditor è stato distribuito a centinaia di Wiki come funzionalità sperimentale alla fine di novembre, tranne per molti Wikizionari (che dipendono fortemente dai template) e tutte le Wikisource (che attendono l'integrazione delle pagine in rilettura).

Migliorìe recenti

Il supporto per la modifica delle tabelle è ora disponibile. Puoi aggiungere e cancellare tabelle, aggiungere e rimuovere righe e colonne, inserire o rimuovere una didascalia per la tabella e unire celle. Per modificare il contenuto di una cella, fai doppio click su di essa. Altre funzioni verranno aggiunte nei prossimi mesi. Inoltre, VisualEditor ora ignora elementi rowspan e colspan non funzionanti o non validi, invece di tentare di sistemarli.

Ora puoi utilizzare lo strumento trova e sostituisci in VisualEditor, attivandolo tramite il pulsante nel menù strumenti o premendo ^ Ctrl+F o ⌘ Cmd+F.

Puoi creare e modificare semplici paragrafi <blockquote> per citare e indentare contenuti. Questo modifica un "Paragrafo" in un "Blocco citazione".

Alcune nuove sequenze da tastiera possono essere utilizzate per formattare il contenuto. All'inizio di una linea, inserire "* " creerà un elenco puntato; "1." o "#" crea un elenco numerato; "==" crea un titolo di sezione; ": " crea un paragrafo indentato. Se si vuole annullare l'auto-formattazione di questi elementi, basta premere "annulla" per annullare la formattazione.

Ci sono anche altre due sequenze da tastiera: "[[" per aprire lo strumento dei link e "{{" per aprire lo strumento template, per aiutare gli editor più esperti. Le scorciatoia da tastiera standard, come ^ Ctrl+K, sono ancora funzionanti.

Se viene aggiunta una categoria che ha subito uno spostamento, ora VisualEditor aggiunge la pagina finale. Le categorie senza una pagina descrittiva ora sono mostrate in rosso.

Si possono creare e modificare le gallerie come codice wikitesto.

Guardando avanti

Il design corrente di VisualEditor verrà rimpiazzato da un nuovo tema creato dal gruppo User Experience. Il nuovo tema sarà visibile per i sistemi desktop in mediawiki.org alla fine di dicembre e negli altri siti dall'inizio di gennaio (puoi vedere un'anteprima del vecchio tema "Apex" e il nuovo tema "MediaWiki").

Il team di modifica pianifica di aggiungere uno strumento di auto-completamento per le citazioni in gennaio.

Sono stati pianificati cambiamenti alla finestra di dialogo per la ricerca di file per rendere la scelta di immagini più facile.
