Previously, it was possible to close a dialog with active edits by pressing the "<" button or pressing escape. A change was made to confirm the user's intent before abandoning their changes, see Ia8935b5b1acb This patch fixes a bug where the user's intent is always confirmed while editing a template, even if the user has made no changes. This was because for technical reasons we trimmed whitespace before making a comparison with the new template case, but that caused the comparison with the edit case to always fail because existing templates are padded with whitespace. This could have been solved by moving the trim operation into the new template flow. This patch would still have been necessary to prevent a bug if the default value had trimmable whitespace. I have opted to keep the whitespace behaviour for edits for consistency. Bug: T334513 Change-Id: I7b3370c86df67c36fc63a1f1d0e7004a098a1950 |

VisualEditor
VisualEditor provides a visual editor for wiki pages. It is written in JavaScript and runs in a web browser.
It uses the Parsoid parser to convert wikitext documents to annotated HTML which the VisualEditor is able to load, modify and emit back to Parsoid at which point it is converted back into wikitext.
For more information about these projects, check out the VisualEditor and Parsoid pages on mediawiki.
