VisualEditor/Survey 2015/hi

सम्पादक टीम यथादृश्य संपादिका की गुणवता में सुधार लाने के लिए आपकी सहायता चाहती है। टीम के पास शीर्ष-वरियता वाली समस्याओं की सूची है लेकिन वो आपसे लघु समस्याओं के बारे में भी सुनना चाहते हैं। इन समस्याओं के कारण हो सकता है आपकी सम्पादन में रूचि कम हो अथवा आपका बहुत समय बर्बाद होता हो अथवा किसी तीक्ष्ण वस्तु से कटी अँगुली के समान कष्टप्रद हो। कुछ लघु त्रुटियाँ इतनी महत्त्वपूर्ण प्रतीत नहीं होती कि इनके लिए त्रुटि-विवरण दर्ज करें लेकिन सम्पादक दल इसके बारे में सुनना चाहता है और इसमें सुधार भी करना चाहता है।

वो विविध प्रकार के सदस्यों से सम्पर्क कर रहे हैं और इस कड़ी पर उनके विचार जानना चाहते हैं।

The quick, simple, anonymous survey is being conducted via Qualtrics. You may respond in your own language.

The information you share will be used to improve VisualEditor's function and design. A link to the final results will be posted on this page.

Introduction
This survey is being conducted by the Wikimedia Foundation to learn more about community members' experience with VisualEditor on Wikipedia and related projects. VisualEditor is a rich-text editor that makes it possible to edit Wikipedia and other projects without first learning wikitext markup.



These screenshots were taken from the English Wikipedia article, "Galaxy". The first screenshot (on the left) shows the article open for editing in VisualEditor. The second screenshot (on the right) shows the same article open for editing in the wikitext editor.
