Community Wishlist Survey 2023/Editing/VisualEditor should use proper names for references/Proposal/id

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki
Outdated translations are marked like this.
  • Problem: There should be proper names for references possible in the VisualEditor
  • Proposed solution: Currently the VE utilizes only nonsensical :0, :1 or such als names for bundled references, not proper (<ref name="Me">), the authors have no say in this regard and have to correct this later in the source code to proper, human names. If such a proper name there could be used from the beginning, with the implementation of such a bundled reference, this would be of great help for all those, who would like to work later with the text.
  • Who would benefit: All authors, that work on articles, especially those, who use the wikitext editor
