Visual Editor became quite unusable (possibly) after a recent update in Malayalam Wikipedia. There are several selection, editing and linking problems started to appear recently. Two such problems are described here.
See the example below
- Copy the following text and paste it in a test page at Malayalam Wikipedia using conventional editor and save it.
ഈ ദുരന്തം ഐറിഷ് രാജ്യാതിർത്തി
- Edit the page using VE.
- Change the third word "ഐറിഷ്" to "അയർലൻഡ്". To do that, select the word "ഐറിഷ്" by double clicking on it and type the word അയർലൻഡ്.
- Now I want to create a wikilink for അയർലൻഡ്. For that, I used shift+ctrl+left arrow. Now, instead of selecting the entire word, A PORTION OF THE WORD WAS SELECTED. See the attachment 1.
- Select the entire word അയർലൻഡ് using double clicking on it
- Press ctrl+k. Now instead of popping up a linking suggestion for the word അയർലൻഡ്, THE WORD DISAPPEARED AND LINKING SUGGESTION FOR A PART OF NEXT WORD POPS UP. See the attachment 2
