It is very difficult to edit pages wrapped with {{Indentar}} and {{Indentar/fim}}
Open, LowestPublic

Description

It is really difficult to edit the page linked below. Its wikicode has the form

{{Indentar}}
Lots o content here...
{{Indentar/fim}}

and the templates have the following content:

  • [[b:pt:Template:Indentar]]: <div class="indent">
  • [[b:pt:Template:Indentar/fim]]: </div>

The result is: all text (wikicode) is inside of a transclusion block (there is a puzzle) and the user has to edit in a very very small text field in the template editor.

Screencast showing how "easy" it was to fix a typo using Visual Editor

Here is a screencast of me trying to fix a typo[1] in a similar page.

matmarex set Security to None.

The page mentioned in the issue consists entirely of templates and can be edited only from Transclusion boxes. That is, of course, not so convenient if any substantial amount of text is placed there.

The fields of a template allow to enter a huge amount of content which may look an editable content.
