Help:Enhanced editor
Editing toolbar and text input areas
The Enhanced editor is a extension developed by the Wikimedia Foundation as an interim solution on the way to a full visual editor.
- The Editing toolbar is helpful creating new content. It appears above the edit/text box and functions partly as a typing aid and partly as a reminder of the available functions. All the functions are available simply by typing the code directly into the edit box (such as
[[link]]) - this may be easier. - The Editing Cheat sheets are helpful in editing existing content
It is the alternative to VisualEditor.
