If someone has edited before the switch (2016-ish), never edited since then, and try to edit again now, it's probably no longer helpful to show them a popup dialog about a change that happened 5 years ago. The immediate motivation for this, though, is T273189. We discovered a bug with the preferences that, among other issues, caused this dialog to not be shown in some cases where it should have been, and fixing the bug now would cause it to be shown the on the next edit attempt. If someone has edited before the switch (2016-ish), *and* edited since then, and try to edit again now, it's definitely not helpful at all to show them a popup dialog about a change that happened 5 years ago. Bug: T273189 Change-Id: I4b5a3d8dbdf1c853eb39fcfc85a9fe87a4db0f21 |

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.
