For BLP's and disambiguation pages on the English Wikipedia, an extra edit notice is provided through the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:EDITINTRO system using Extension:InputBox and some code in MediaWiki:Common.js. VisualEditor does not work with Extension:InputBox, so the edit notice is not displayed.
This hack is being used in several Wikimedia wikis besides the English Wikipedia:
- https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.js
- https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.js
- https://vi.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.js
See also Template:BLP editintro (Q10566946) and Template:Disambig editintro (Q14400704) for more of the potentially affected wikis.
