- Some wikis have one tab for the visual editor and one tab for a wikitext editor. Others wikis just have one tab. If your wiki has two tabs, clicking a link to create a new page has always opened a wikitext editor. It will now open the editor you used the last time you edited. [6]
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 4 Birželis. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 5 Birželis. It will be on all wikis from 6 Birželis (calendar).
