It's possible to specify a parameter with no name via TemplateData. This confuses the template dialog because the empty string is a reserved, internal value for parameters that are in the process of being named. Fixing TemplateData is not so easy. Therefor this workaround here. See T333826 for a detailed description. Bug: T333826 Change-Id: I5f4efd7069e71ba51138a23f3c3cb40e1b50d339 |

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.
