The Reply tool is available at most other Wikipedias.
Research notes:
The new tool for starting new discussions (new sections) will join the Discussion tools in Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures at the end of January. You can try the tool for yourself. [4] You can leave feedback in this thread or on the talk page.
During Talk pages consultation 2019, editors said that it should be easier to know about new activity in conversations they are interested in. The Notifications project is just beginning. What would help you become aware of new comments? What's working with the current system? Which pages at your wiki should the team look at? Please post your advice at mw:Talk:Talk pages project/Notifications.

In the normal editor, there is the opportunity to add things like strikethrough tags either side of selected text. Either that is missing, or too difficult to find.

I have just used the dab link helper context menu (I think from the popups addon?) and with the visual editor, no change is recognised so the "Publish your changes" button is greyed out. I resolved the dab link manually, but thinking about it I could probably have added and removed a space to wake that button up.

This isn't exactly a software thing, just a request for a place to give suggestions for a page. I thought there was a talk or discussion page for each article? Point being, it might be "politically correct" to also add the Simplified (PRC Chinese characters) Chinese words for each term.
KurtmanJones ( talk) 05:06, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
@ KurtmanJones: The best place for general questions is here: Wikipedia:Help desk.
As for discussion pages (called talk pages) - if you're on desktop, then at the top left of every page there should be a tab that says "Talk" (to the right of "Article"). For mobile, you have to manually type in Talk: followed by the article name in the search bar (it's a pain). The one you want is here: Talk:Free_area_of_the_Republic_of_China

Earlier this year, the Editing team ran a large study of the Reply Tool. The main goal was to find out whether the Reply Tool helped newer editors communicate on wiki. The second goal was to see whether the comments that newer editors made using the tool needed to be reverted more frequently than comments newer editors made with the existing wikitext page editor.
The key results were:
These results give the Editing team confidence that the tool is helpful.
Looking ahead
The team is planning to make the Reply tool available to everyone as an opt-out preference in the coming months. This has already happened at the Arabic, Czech, and Hungarian Wikipedias.
The next step is to resolve a technical challenge. Then, they will deploy the Reply tool first to the Wikipedias that participated in the study. After that, they will deploy it, in stages, to the other Wikipedias and all WMF-hosted wikis.
You can turn on "Discussion Tools" in Beta Features now. After you get the Reply tool, you can change your preferences at any time in Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing-discussion.

With either the source editor or the visual editor, clicking the edit button doesn't show me the existing references for me to use as a template, nor indicate any way for me to add one. Very confusing. I know I've added references to articles before, years ago. You all have changed something so it's not intuitive at all. Or am I using a "wrong" browser (Firefox, not the latest version but not THAT old)?

I added a "Infobox scientist" in the "George Leitmann" article including his portrait among other field entries. I would like to delete the previously inserted portrait Image to avoid duplication. But I could not find a way to deleted it. As a temporary measure I minimized that portrait Image to 1x1 pixels for it not to be apparent. However, in the PC version of display, a small rectangular box appears above the "Infobox scientist" box & push down the "Infobox scientist" box, and viewer of that page can click the 1x1 pixel icon to blow up the portrait Image.
Please teach me how to delete that 1x1 pixel Image box so the "Infobox scientist" box will be moved up to be conform with other articles having a Infobox. Thank you very much!

The Reply tool is available at most other Wikipedias.
Research notes:
The new tool for starting new discussions (new sections) will join the Discussion tools in Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures at the end of January. You can try the tool for yourself. [4] You can leave feedback in this thread or on the talk page.
During Talk pages consultation 2019, editors said that it should be easier to know about new activity in conversations they are interested in. The Notifications project is just beginning. What would help you become aware of new comments? What's working with the current system? Which pages at your wiki should the team look at? Please post your advice at mw:Talk:Talk pages project/Notifications.

I have just used the dab link helper context menu (I think from the popups addon?) and with the visual editor, no change is recognised so the "Publish your changes" button is greyed out. I resolved the dab link manually, but thinking about it I could probably have added and removed a space to wake that button up.

This isn't exactly a software thing, just a request for a place to give suggestions for a page. I thought there was a talk or discussion page for each article? Point being, it might be "politically correct" to also add the Simplified (PRC Chinese characters) Chinese words for each term.
KurtmanJones ( talk) 05:06, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
@ KurtmanJones: The best place for general questions is here: Wikipedia:Help desk.
As for discussion pages (called talk pages) - if you're on desktop, then at the top left of every page there should be a tab that says "Talk" (to the right of "Article"). For mobile, you have to manually type in Talk: followed by the article name in the search bar (it's a pain). The one you want is here: Talk:Free_area_of_the_Republic_of_China

Earlier this year, the Editing team ran a large study of the Reply Tool. The main goal was to find out whether the Reply Tool helped newer editors communicate on wiki. The second goal was to see whether the comments that newer editors made using the tool needed to be reverted more frequently than comments newer editors made with the existing wikitext page editor.
The key results were:
These results give the Editing team confidence that the tool is helpful.
Looking ahead
The team is planning to make the Reply tool available to everyone as an opt-out preference in the coming months. This has already happened at the Arabic, Czech, and Hungarian Wikipedias.
The next step is to resolve a technical challenge. Then, they will deploy the Reply tool first to the Wikipedias that participated in the study. After that, they will deploy it, in stages, to the other Wikipedias and all WMF-hosted wikis.
You can turn on "Discussion Tools" in Beta Features now. After you get the Reply tool, you can change your preferences at any time in Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing-discussion.

With either the source editor or the visual editor, clicking the edit button doesn't show me the existing references for me to use as a template, nor indicate any way for me to add one. Very confusing. I know I've added references to articles before, years ago. You all have changed something so it's not intuitive at all. Or am I using a "wrong" browser (Firefox, not the latest version but not THAT old)?

I added a "Infobox scientist" in the "George Leitmann" article including his portrait among other field entries. I would like to delete the previously inserted portrait Image to avoid duplication. But I could not find a way to deleted it. As a temporary measure I minimized that portrait Image to 1x1 pixels for it not to be apparent. However, in the PC version of display, a small rectangular box appears above the "Infobox scientist" box & push down the "Infobox scientist" box, and viewer of that page can click the 1x1 pixel icon to blow up the portrait Image.
Please teach me how to delete that 1x1 pixel Image box so the "Infobox scientist" box will be moved up to be conform with other articles having a Infobox. Thank you very much!
