User blog comment:Sarah Manley/New Editor Scheduled for Sitewide Release/@comment-1474707-20110910200457

Perhaps I could explain why users are so annoyed at present - because we've given you feedback, we've been promised fixes, and it's still gone live. We've been doing this for months. Let's take a look at some of the issues that Wikia are "going to fix", and when they were brought to attention. June 22 you were informed that preview and articles were out by a few pixels. I brought it up more recently, and Kirkburn had forgotten about it. It's still not fixed. This is a very basic fundamental necessity for editing articles. June 23, no js in preview. Didn't stop it going live. June 22, we were gonna get it looking nicer on dark skinned wikis. June 23, auto-complete for edit summaries was "on Kirkburn's list". Whatever that meant. July 19, promised space under our text in source mode. You gave it the wikialabs treatment, we gave you your feedback, and now we're stuck with it. Are we to expect another 2 month plus wait before any new issues are fixed? And in the meantime, just struggle on with a buggy editor? As the staff have so often said, this is such an important thing for wikis, so to release a very flawed version despite being told all the flaws in good time, is why our blood is up
