Concerns about citations

Hello! When developers take on the task of integrating citation generation tools into the Visual Editor, could someone please seek community comment? I have a list of projects by various stakeholders doing citation projects at meta:Grants:IdeaLab/Reform_of_citation_structure_for_all_Wikimedia_projects. Thanks.

@Bluerasberry: We've been talking about this kind of work for years, and specifically for VisualEditor with requests for community input for nine months. What kind of community comment were you expecting? Jdforrester (WMF) (talk) 16:39, 22 May 2014 (UTC)

@Jdforrester (WMF): That proposal at IdeaLab is a list of a lot of people's pet projects. I cannot expect what people would say but perhaps at Wikimania or some other time by voice and video I could chat with you about the items on that list and tell you what I know. It really is a complicated list of projects with lots of stakeholders, all related to the simple act of presenting citations. I completely excuse myself from any discussions about citation style; I am only interested in storing citations in any way. Blue Rasberry (talk) 18:58, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

@Bluerasberry: Sure, I'll be at Wikimania. Jdforrester (WMF) (talk) 19:38, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Is this an extension?

Is it part of Extension:Cite? Or is it it's own thing? Legoktm (talk) 05:49, 24 May 2014 (UTC)

A service, and it's its own thing. Jdforrester (WMF) (talk) 04:48, 25 May 2014 (UTC)
