Pangkalahatan

 * Ano ang VisualEditor?
 * Ang VisualEditor ay isang simulain sa pagpapaunlad ng software ng Pundasyong Wikimedia na magpapahintulot sa mga tao na mamatnugot ng mga pahina sa MediaWiki nang hindi na mangangailangang matuto ng wikitext syntax. Sa VisualEditor, ang pagpo-format ng mga pahina ay gagana kagaya nang sa isang word processor. Habang namamatnugot, ang pahina ay magmimistulang kagaya ng kung papaano magmumukha ang pahina kagaya nang matapos itong itala.


 * Bakit isinasagawa ang pagbabagong ito?
 * Ang kumplikadong wiki markup syntax na ginagamit sa lumang window ng pag-eedit ay ang pinakamalaking hadlang sa paggawa ng iyong unang pag-edit, at sa gayon, siyang pinakamalaking hadlang sa pagsisimula ng daan na magbubunsod sa pagiging produktibo at makaranasang kasapi ng isa sa pamayanang mamamatnugot. Upang mapalawig ang bilang ng mga matagumpay na paninimula sa pamamatnugot, kinakailangan natin nang mas mainan na sistema sa pag-eedit. Mangyaring basahin ang mas malalim na paliwanag para sa iba pang detalye.


 * Saan ako pupunta upang lalong makaalam sa paggamit ng VisualEditor?
 * Mangyaring tingnan ang Gabay sa Paggamit ng VisualEditor.


 * Kailan papaganahin ang VisualEditor sa aking wiki?
 * Ang kasalukuyang iskedyul ng mga susunod na rollouts ay makikita sa mw:VisualEditor/Rollouts. Higit sa kalahati ng mga Wikipedia ay nakatanggap ng VisualEditor bilang pagpipilian ng mga manggagamit noong 2013. VisualEditor is available as an opt-in Beta Feature to almost all logged-in users at all Wikimedia Foundation projects except Wiktionary and Wikisource.


 * Why are you deploying the software even though development is not finished?
 * The software has features to be added and issues to be resolved. Ultimately, the best way to detect bugs and identify missing features is to have as many people as possible using the software and playing with it. While we know that bugs are disruptive in the short term, they will be fixed, and the current use is what lets us identify things that need fixing.


 * I found an issue with VisualEditor. How can I tell you to fix it?
 * If you're willing and able, please report the issue in Phabricator in the "VisualEditor" product. Most large Wikipedias also have a wiki page dedicated to feedback about VisualEditor; see the list on Wikidata. There is also a central feedback page on mediawiki.org.


 * How do I disable VisualEditor?
 * To continue to edit the wikitext directly, simply click the "" button instead of "". On section edit links, you can open the classic wikitext editor for that section by clicking "" instead of the regular "" link. On wikis where VisualEditor is still a Beta Feature, you can simply uncheck its box in the Beta tab of your Preferences; on the other wikis, you can check the Temporarily disable VisualEditor while it is in beta box from the Editing tab instead.


 * A feature is missing in VisualEditor. How do I ask you to add it?
 * Some features are currently being developed or planned (like support for poems or musical scores). The Roadmap, the Wikimedia Engineering goals pages for 2015–2016 and the Phabricator workboard provide some additional information as well. If you can't find any reference to the new feature you'd like to suggest, please submit it using the same process used to report an issue.


 * Will it still be possible to edit using wikitext after VisualEditor becomes the primary editing interface?
 * Yes. While VisualEditor will eventually be offered to all users by default, a method for editing the underlying “source” text will continue to exist. There are no plans to remove wikitext editing.


 * Can I use familiar wikimarkup like  and  in VisualEditor?
 * No. Currently, those shortcuts will trigger the link and the template tool respectively. If you use wikimarkup in the article, a warning message will appear. See VisualEditor User guide for more about how to use VisualEditor.


 * Why is my browser not supported?
 * Building a modern editing interface for Wikipedia and its sister wiki is a technical challenge, but it's possible using modern web technologies and standards. Unfortunately, some browsers don't support many of the features we need for VisualEditor. We're doing our best to support the most common browsers: VisualEditor works well with recent versions of the most popular web browsers: Firefox 15 and up; Iceweasel 10 and up; Safari 7 and up; Chrome 19 and up; Opera 15 and up; Microsoft Internet Explorer 10 and 11.  Support for Internet Explorer 9 is planned. Trying to work around the limitations of older browsers would divert resources from improvements that would benefit the majority of users. We encourage you to upgrade to a supported browser and, if you can't, to continue to edit using the source wikitext editor. (See VisualEditor/Target browser matrix for specific details.)


 * Does VisualEditor work with Wikisource's ProofreadPage, or Wiktionary's templates, and other features that Wikipedia doesn't have?
 * VisualEditor is flexible enough to be adapted to all Wikimedia sites. However, Wiktionary's heavy reliance on templates will require significant work by community members to provide TemplateData to their users, and Wikisource's ProofreadPage tool will require some additional work to integrate VisualEditor smoothly.


 * Can I install VisualEditor on my personal wiki outside Wikimedia?
 * Yes, at your own risk. VisualEditor and Parsoid extensions are available for download but they're still experimental; note that Parsoid requires nodeJS. If you do install and use them, please let us know what worked and what didn't in Phabricator.


 * Does VisualEditor make automatic fixes to pages?
 * In most cases, VisualEditor will not make changes to formatting on lines that are not being directly edited. In cases where markup already on the page is handled incorrectly (for example, with tables that are not closed), it may attempt to correct these.


 * My question isn't here. Where do I ask?
 * You can ask on the VisualEditor feedback page on your wiki (see the list on Wikidata) or on the central feedback page on mediawiki.org.
