Derk-Jan Hartman a270fc396d Categories: Don't suggest empty or old categories
The categories table holds all categories that exist OR have at one
point existed. This means it also contains a lot of vandalism and
other inappropriate names that happily come up in the suggestions.
This is undesirable. This changes the query to only list categories
with at least 1 entry.

Though technically it can be argued that an empty category with an
existing page might 'exist' and should thus be listed, with this
change they won't be. I don't think that is terribly incorrect to
say that such would be a 'new category', but we could also consider
renaming the label in the suggestion list to say:
'Currently unused category' or something similar.

As far as I can tell there is no way to test for page existance OR
generate a list based on allcategories with one API query.

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.

Developing and installing

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.
