Description

VisualEditor is a project to create a reliable, full-featured rich-text or "visual" HTML editor for the Web. Though VisualEditor itself is an HTML editor, it is integrated into platforms for use there, primary in #MediaWiki with the VisualEditor-MediaWiki integration, used in conjunction with the Parsoid parsing service to provide the HTML+RDFa.

Our projects are arranged as follows:

VisualEditor – Anything related to VisualEditor, including related extensions.

VisualEditor-ContentEditable – Items related to the contentEditable technology at the core of VisualEditor, such as typing or selection issues.
VisualEditor-ContentLanguage – Items related to specific language issues, like interference with an Input Method Editor.
VisualEditor-CopyPaste – Items related to copying, cutting and pasting content.
VisualEditor-DataModel – Items related to the core data model code inside VisualEditor, like corruption issues.
VisualEditor-Edit Cards – Items related to the editing interface that shows additional details about, and actions related to, editable elements within articles.
VisualEditor-EditingTools – Items related to the main editing tools inside VisualEditor, like lists or text styling.
VisualEditor-Initialisation – Items related to the loading (and unloading) of VisualEditor itself.
VisualEditor-InterfaceLanguage – Items related to the i18n inside VisualEditor.
VisualEditor-Links – Items related to adding and editing links inside stand-alone VisualEditor. You probably want VisualEditor-MediaWiki-Links.
VisualEditor-Media – Items related to adding and editing media inside stand-alone VisualEditor. You probably want VisualEditor-MediaWiki-Media.
VisualEditor-Performance – Items related to the performance of VisualEditor.
VisualEditor-Tables – Items related to adding and editing tables inside VisualEditor.
VisualEditor-VisualDiffs – Items related to the visual diff system inside VisualEditor.

VisualEditor-MediaWiki – Items related to the use of VisualEditor inside MediaWiki.
VisualEditor-MediaWiki-Links – Items related to the adding and editing of links in VisualEditor inside MediaWiki.
VisualEditor-MediaWiki-Media – Items related to the adding and editing of media in VisualEditor inside MediaWiki.
VisualEditor-MediaWiki-Mobile – Items related to the use of VisualEditor inside MediaWiki on mobile devices.
VisualEditor-MediaWiki-Plugins – Items related to the creation of VisualEditor tools for MediaWiki extensions.

El T397984#11010485, @bmartinezcalvo escribió:

Based on the decisions made during our last team's meeting, I'm sharing the Figma prototype updated with the following:

Once clicking on Revise, the Edit Check card will include:

Title: Revise tone?

Description: Look out for expressions that are flattering, disparaging, vague, cliché, or endorsing of a particular viewpoint.

Buttons: Recheck + Decline

When clicking on Recheck, the card will be loading while rechecking and then:

If the model evaluates the revised text as STILL containing tone-related issue(s), the message "The text still contains tone-related issues." will appear within the card.

If the model evaluates the revised text as NOT containing any tone-related issues, a success message will appear "Thank you for revising the tone!"

Clicking on Decline will take the user to the decline survey; clicking Back inside the decline-survey takes you back to previous revising step.

It happens on https://nl.wikipedia.org, when replying to a discussion topic, either in Visual or Code editor mode. When typing text containing ~!@#%$^&*( )+"{ }< >? or other nonalphanumeric symbols anywhere but the start of the text, the right-to-left modus and inserting typed text at the very start of the line begins.
