Topic on 2017 wikitext editor/Feedback

I am an active user of DisFixer, a tool used on plwiki for fixing redirects to disambiguation pages. It normally offers for each such link a menu of possible choices, extracted from the disambiguation page. After making choices, a button transfers me the the diff window with wikitext editor, in which all the changes have been made automatically (with links via redirects resolved, too), and where I can insert manual corrections, if necessary. NWE does not seem to work with DisFixer. I have used it on , and got no automatical corrections. I've had to make them manually.

I would like NWE to cooperate with DisFixer.

I belive you should ask the gadget developers, not here.

Turns out the gadget developer in this case is on our team, so maybe you will get some NWE support sooner :)

Yeah, I could probably look into this. I should get around to it this week. I have a bit of a backlog to go through after the holidays. :)

Turns out the 2017 wikitext editor is not really ready to support gadgets. For now, I've just made a little tweak to make sure disFixer always ends up using the old editor.

Good enough. Thanks!
