Before, the fallback algorithm was somewhat adaptive, trying harder and harder the fewer CirrusSearch results have been found. This updated algorithm guarantees that 10 results are shown. Warning: You might see only 9 results. The reason is a bogus, unrelated behavior in the mw.widgets.TitleWidget in core that's used as a base class here. There is a "showMissing" option that's apparently enabled by default, and prepends a non-existing title from the main namespace, ignoring the "namespace" option. This extra result from the wrong namespace is later dropped by the very same widget. This code here sees 10 results before the bogus one is dropped. Disabling "showMissing" causes other issues. We would need a series (?) of custom hacks to work around all this, but this seems inappropriate. Let's live with 9 for the moment. Bug: T303524 Change-Id: I2c577c9ef2752b6c6cd360f4023e151e9272fcd5 |

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.

For information on installing VisualEditor on a local wiki, please see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:VisualEditor
For information about running tests and contributing code to VisualEditor, see CONTRIBUTING.md. Patch submissions are reviewed and managed with Gerrit. There is also API documentation available for the VisualEditor.
