, 2 years agoMaybe there’s something I missing as to why VE is needed (if short term, that’d be fine though it could complicate the examples which would then require switching between modes, that seems unnecessary if preview is used)

::I forgot to mention, given you're familiar with template styles, if you're willing to copy the existing styles from [[MediaWiki:Common.css]] and get them set up as template styles instead, I'm happy to remove them from MediaWiki:Common.css after that. I'm so busy trying to get the rest of the examples and stuff sorted that I I don't really have time to do that bit.

::I’ll just add a note that if VE is only for ease of short term revamping, I’d be completely fine to turn it on again temporarily then turn it off later when we’re mostly done. I just don’t love the idea of adding a layer of viewing/testing complication or swapping for the long-term if that makes sense? I have examples preloading content in source edit, users would have to know how to switch, though with preview right there I’m not sure why they would want/need to? I’m not a big VE user though, only using it for complex tables with multiple colspan and rowspans, so maybe there’s some essential component to it that I’m just not seeing at current? Perhaps you can help me to better understand why you think it is essential and if you see that as a short or long term need? Some of our users can’t even figure out how to switch between VE and source edit, or they use VE so much elsewhere that they cant grasp working with wikitext for tables etc, though that is very necessary for understanding a lot of DPL3 examples.
