Forum:Rich text editor sitewide release

Good morning!

We plan to roll out the new Rich Text Editor early next week (15th June onwards) to be available for use on all English-language Wikia wikis (with a few exceptions*) for users who edit using the Monaco skin.

The editor will be available to all users, and can be switched on and off via user preferences. If you are an established editor, you will only see the Rich Text Editor if you have previously edited on a wiki where it was already enabled. Once the change goes live, new editors will see it enabled by default. In most cases, if you previously used the new editor, you should continue to see it; if you didn't use the new editor, this should also stay the same.

If you spot any issues with the new editor, please let us know in the Central Wikia forums. We are dedicated to making wikis easier to understand and edit, and we welcome all suggestions and feedback.

Thanks!

* The exceptions are wikis which heavily use HTML comments or especially complex code, where the new editor would rarely show even if enabled - I have posted notes on these wikis.

Marvel?
Hey there, I was under the impression that Marvel and DC Database wasn't going to get this editor. Was I misinformed?
