Testing LanguageConverter with Parsoid and VisualEditor
The easiest way for an English-literate developer to test LanguageConverter is to first enable Pig Latin on your test wiki. To do this, add the following line to your : You will then see a drop down menu for selecting a language variant (assuming that , which is the default). You can pick Pig Latin (Igpay Atinlay) here. You should already be running the latest MediaWiki (make sure https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/72053 is included) and Parsoid (make sure https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/140235 is included).
