I'm a proponent of VisualEditor being our only WYSIWYG-like editor. The rich-text editor while a great editor in its time, simply has to go. Keeping both of those is one hell of a complicated mess, it is like keeping permanent training wheels. I know there are problems with VisualEditor, but none that can't be overcome.

Both Wikia and the contributors are using it as a crutch. Parallel implementations like this aren't meant to be long term solutions, and wikia knows it only too well.

@Dessamator: Thank you for the clarification. Whew! I thought you wanted rid of the source editor.
