Help talk:Extension:Translate/Page translation example

This way of translating content makes the page output extremely verbose see for example https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Extension:Math&action=edit It's hard to read and to edit and it reduces the entropy significantly. This reverts the effort of the visual editor to keep the source readable. I think in principal there is no need to store all the translate tags and XML comments in the wikitext. Or is the general strategy to use the visual editor exclusively for editing? In that case I'd vote for making the new wikitext identical to docx, so that it can be edited with Microsoft Word if everything else crashes;-) --Physikerwelt (talk) 18:15, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
 * This comment is not related to the tutorial at all, is it? It seems a comment about Translate syntax.
 * Your point seems to be that the Translate marking should be possible in VisualEditor: that's 53974, which is blocked on 48891. --Nemo 18:25, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
