Help:VisualEditor/VE as the main editor

VE|VisualEditor becomes the default editor at your wiki.

There is now an tdgui>Help:TemplateData#TemplateData_editor|editing tool that allows you to add TemplateData in a simpler way. Start with templates that are often used in articles, such as citation and reference templates, as well as infoboxes. The MostTranscludedPages special page on your wiki might help you find out which are the most important templates you need to work on. The ones which are heavily used in the article namespace have the priority. Tip: check how other wikis did this. For example, [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Cite_web/doc&action=edit&section=T-22 here is the TemplateData] for the   template at the English Wikipedia. If you recently imported   from that wiki and didn't customize it further, then copying and pasting their TemplateData will probably work for you. Tip: phab>Phabricator|reporting bugs or feature requests directly on Phabricator will catch the developers'attention more quickly. howto>Phabricator/Help#Creating_a_task|Learn how to file a task. You can also report problems by leaving a message at the fback>VisualEditor/Feedback|central feedback page on this site. Tip: the highest chance to make mistakes with VisualEditor should actually come from experienced users, who will just need some time to adapt to the new environment.
 * 1) The first step is involving your whole community to let them know VisualEditor is now available for editors at your wiki and to get further help with the following tasks.  Tip: you can start a conversation at your Village Pump and then link to this page, you can set up a notice>MediaWiki:Sitenotice|sitenotice, or a watchlist>MediaWiki:Watchlist-details|watchlist notice for logged-in contributors.
 * 2) There is key documentation to translate, mainly the guide>Help:VisualEditor/User_guide|User guide and [https://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special:Translate&group=ext-visualeditor-0-all&filter=%21translated&action=translate the interface itself].  Tip: for more information and instructions, please see VisualEditor/TranslationCentral.
 * 3) Help:TemplateData contains information about how to add TemplateData information to common templates on your wiki.  This is important because if templates do not include this data, they will be difficult to use inside VisualEditor.
 * 1) Check bugs on the local feedback page, if your wiki has one, to see [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/visualeditor/ if they are already known to developers].
 * 1) Patrollers might want to keep an eye on the log of edits made with VisualEditor for a few weeks. You can reach it from [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges&tagfilter=visualeditor</> this link] (you'll need to change language code and sister project name in the browser's address bar after you click on it!).
