Usability: Editing

[jdittrich]

The Usability when editing pages needs to be improved; all users tested did have problems with using links and embedding images (and the tested user group can be assumed to be more proficient that the average wiki user). The finding is not singular, Désilets et.al, 2005, found rather similar issues.

Possible Solutions:

• Media Wiki Editor with enabled dialogues for images and links.
• Copy paste templates on the wikipage
• Test Media Wiki Editor
• ease to insert picture: Mockups in Usability: Editing/Images – Lightbox showing insert and recent edits #14
• ease creating subpages using a dialogue
