  • Will any meeting ever be held at a time friendly to Wikisource members in the Americas? All four meetings so far have been held at the same time (3 AM PST / 6 AM EST), which is unfriendly to editors from Canada, Mexico, and the United States. — The preceding unsigned comment was added by EncycloPetey (talk)

Summary of the conversation

[edit]
  • New phabricator ticket (T304303) created, regarding removing VisualEditor support from ProofreadPage. (This will help with a number of outstanding bugs, and doesn't mean we don't want to support VE one day!).
  • Satdeep to reach out to Andre Klapper to learn more about All-and-every-wikisource workboard and to possibly rename it to just Wikisource. It might also be better to move Wikisource-specific projects (such as WS Export and ProofreadPage) to be subprojects of the main Wikisource one, so it's possible to view all Wikisource tasks at once.
  • It was suggested that header and footer boxes be removed from the Proofreadpage and including them within the text with "noinclude" tags might resolve some issues around find and replace and VisualEditor.
  • An idea was raised to get all Wikisource developers working together on a common task or tool, so that we can get to know each other more and also get the work done faster.
