Description Oliver Keyes 2013-07-12 13:48:23 UTC
So, for example, the template dialogue. Once you're in it, there's not really any guidance on what you should do: as intuitive as we can ultimately make it, there will always be some confusion. It would be good if the VisualEditor had space for some kind of help icon that would link, in a new tab/window, to a pertinent help page on the specific wiki: we could set up MediaWiki namespace pages that provide the wiki-specific link.
Comment 1 James Forrester 2014-06-26 23:15:08 UTC
Instead of help /pages/ we've decided to go with help /popups/, per bug 51798.
