I would prefer the 2010 Wiki Editor with syntax highlighting a lot due to it's comparatively insane load speeds and simpler/more familiar appearance.

I do appreciate UCP's source mode though, it's miles better than the current VE's Source Mode, which is nigh-unusable.

Reply to #66 FANDOM does that occasionally. It looks like CSS just doesn't load, a refresh usually fixes it. If this is in reference to me. I'll say it simply: if the current UCP Source mode stays the same- I'll stop editing. I have been in wikis 9ish years, admin'd for a handful or wikis and have over 100k edits. I love wikis and I never ever ever use ultimatums lightly (and I usually follow through), but this is a complete turn off and I only hope that the finished product of source mode is at least tolerable which at the moment to me- it is not.

I do appreciate you at least stated your favoured Source Editor choice (it looks like a better option for sure). Hopefully, that is enough to give more options to staff to improve and they do need to improve upon UCP Source Mode's current state. But remember this UCP is about feedback and working with editors (not against) and IMO simply fulfilling your needs isn't good enough; this is an upgrade we have some say in and I hope it's better than fulfilling our needs- or why upgrade.
