I've started this page with subpages based on the WP:VE/UG. This is a different focus to the markup version of this page, since it teaches uploading to Wikimedia Commons as the default. T.Shafee(Evo﹠Evo)talk 09:27, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Differences between this version and the Wiki Markup version

This module and the Wiki Markup module open differently, even though there's no reason for them to be any different until the inserting images page. Which version should we keep? Sdkb (talk) 14:01, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

What ...open?--Moxy 🍁 17:43, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Moxy: "Open" as in, the first few pages are different. For instance, the markup version goes into the whole free vs. non-free content distinction in lots of detail, whereas the visual editor version ignores it entirely. I think the ideal would probably be somewhere in the middle. Sdkb (talk) 17:48, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep short version. Going to be hard to keep any readers as is....so shorter is better Help:Introduction to/All is bigger then the missing manual.--Moxy 🍁 17:54, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Moxy: Fair enough; I'll try trimming it down. I noticed your creation of Help:Introduction to/All, and it's interesting, but it's hard to tell how much the length is just a factor of the format, which obviously wasn't intended to be displayed that way. My rough sense is that the entirety of the Help:Intro series is actually about the same length as WP:Contributing. Sdkb (talk) 19:25, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, so looking at the pages, trimming them is probably going to require deleting two of them (the ones on free and non-free images). I'd prefer to have an admin help with that, as they are capable of deleting, so the changes can be made without disruption. Sdkb (talk) 08:32, 12 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
