Initialize page again

2013-12-05 (MW 1.23wmf6)
VisualEditor was updated as part of the wider [|MediaWiki 1.23wmf6 branch deployment] on Thursday 5 December. In the two weeks since 1.23wmf5, the team worked on some new features, performance and usability improvements, minor bug fixes and code infrastructure.

You can now paste rich content copied from external sources (not just as plain text), including other VisualEditor surfaces (bugs 41193, 48170, 50128, and 53828). You can paste the clipboard as plain (unformatted) text by using a new keyboard shortcut, Ctrl + ⇧   Shift +V or  ⌘   Cmd + ⇧   Shift +V (bug 53781). It is now possible to edit auto-numbered external links (i.e. one that appears like "[3]"); you can change the target using the link inspector as with other links. If you change it to an internal link, it will replace the auto-numbered anchor with the name of the target (bug 53505). You can now launch into VisualEditor by appending to the view page URL irrespective of user preferences – this will let users test VisualEditor with a variety of browsers without needing to log in each time (bug 55900).

We now optimistically submit the page Parsoid for serialisation into wikitext as soon as the user launches the save dialog, before they've clicked "save page", which should make saving the page appear faster for many use cases (bug 56011). If you have loaded the wikitext diff of a page ("Review your changes") and then try to save it without making changes, VisualEditor will keep a copy of the wikitext from the first time, so saving will be much faster (bug 55979).

We significantly changed how VisualEditor stores the contents of the page internally (from UTF-8 back to UTF-16), which fixes a large number of issues related to inserting, deleting, cursoring around and selecting over non-Latin scripts like Devanagari, Arabic or Thai (bugs 51472, 51596, 51846, 53757). We now annotate the body tag of the HTML document with a class (" ") so gadget authors can ensure they don't fire in VisualEditor mode (bug 57555).

A bug which meant that switching to wikitext when logged out always gave an edit conflict warning has been fixed (bug 56835). Auto-numbered external links now also auto-number when they appear in generated content like reference lists (bug 57420). Cursoring over a generated content node (a media file, template, reference or similar) now does not get you stuck in an infinite cursoring loop in Firefox (bug 57600). Clicking in the blank space above the link inspector now closes the inspector, so you won't get a pawn ("♙") appearing if you try to insert content there (bug 56976). A bug that effected the rendering of  blocks in the MWExtensionNode, causing it to appear empty after the user edits it is now fixed (bug 54577). A regression that meant that the "watch this" checkbox in the save dialog was checked regardless of the user preference was reversed (bug 56206).

The browser tests now test the media insertion dialog, and were updated a number of times to keep up with changes to VisualEditor. [|OOjs] is now available in MediaWiki core for other users, and [|OOjs UI] was extended, with additional widgets including checkboxes and generic labels. The automated testing system has been greatly expanded to cover script and input-method-editor issues, with an IME simulator able to check every change in the code for breaking any of dozens of known IME tools; further information about new IMEs can be added as it is gathered, and a tool to help collect this information is now available.

You can monitor the automated browser tests' results (triggered every twelve hours) live on the server. A complete list of individual code commits is available [|in the 1.23/wmf6 changelog], and all Bugzilla bugs closed in this period are on Bugzilla's list.

Life and work
Gregor Schneider studied from 1989 to 1992 at several German Art Academies including: the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf (Art Academy of Düsseldorf) and at Kunstakademie Münster (Academy of Fine Arts Münster), and at the [|Hochschule für bildende Künste] (University of Fine Arts Hamburg). From 1999 to 2003, he served as a guest professor / educational activities at several art schools including: De Ateliers in Amsterdam, the Academy of Fine Arts Hamburg and at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, Copenhagen. Gregor Schneider has been nominated as professor of sculpting to the University of Art Berlin in 2009.

At the age of 16, Schneider had his first solo exhibition entitled, Pubertäre Verstimmung, at the gallery Kontrast in [|Mönchengladbach]. Since the beginning of the 1990s he has worked with rooms in galleries and museums. He conceives the rooms as three-dimensional, sculptures that can be walked through, which oftentimes hide or alter the existing gallery- and museum rooms; the rooms he works with are existing rooms he finds in different dwellings or domestic buildings. In 1985 he began dismantling and rebuilding rooms in an apartment building in Rheydt, which he entitled, Haus u r.

Wilkin County is a [|county] located in the [|U.S. state] of [|Minnesota]. As of the [|2010 census], the population of Wilkin County was 6,576. Its [|county seat] is [|Breckenridge].[2 ] It was originally established as Toombs County on March 8, 1858, named after [|Robert Toombs] (1810–85) of Georgia, who had been a member of Congress, 1845–53, and was U.S. senator, 1853-61. Mr. Toombs became a leading disunionist, then a Confederate secretary of state in 1861, and later was a Confederate general. In 1863, the county was renamed Andy Johnson County after President [|Andrew Johnson] and to disassociate with Mr. Toombs. The county again changed its name to Wilkin County on March 6, 1868.

Toombs County was formed from [|Pembina County]. It is the parental county for [|Traverse County], and now are parts of [|Clay], [|Otter Tail], [|Grant], [|Stevens], [|Douglas] and [|Pope] counties.

Wilkin County is part of the [|Wahpeton], [|ND]–MN [|Micropolitan Statistical Area].

[|Trevor Parscal] and [|Neil Kandalgaonkar] have done exploratory work on the visual editor project. Neil worked with developers of HackPad (a custom version of Etherpad, a real-time collaborative editing software) on a proof of concept of integration between Etherpad and MediaWiki (read more). They're now working on turning it into a MediaWiki extension. Work on the visual editor is also intersecting with the groundwork done on the new parser.
