Not all items are included in the formatting section?

In the formatting section, it leaves out information about the Big and Small options. The image included says "Clear styling", but the page says "Remove". Is there a reason for these items being left out? This is also present in the tutorial on Formatting.

Automatic citation question

I had a translator pushed to the master github repo of zotero translators because I wanted to start using it on Wikipedia. It's been many moons and it still doesn't work :(. Does anyone know where I should go to make sure it's activated site-wide? toobigtokale (talk) 05:45, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia/Project Namespace

According to this article, VisualEditor is enabled for the Project Namespace. Is this correct? Doesn't seem to be for me! Tomatoswoop (talk) 01:30, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Regex

Does the visual editor support regular expression search and replace and how do you activate it? I tried the instructions in Wikisource:Regex but didn't see "Add a 'regex editor' sidebar link which lets you write, apply, and save regex patterns (documentation)." under gadgets. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)

Re Diversity:

A black Rockette danced in the Radio City Xmas shows 1982-84 in Los Angeles. Choreographer: Violet Holmes

Source: Former Rockette and others who worked with her.RCMH may not have kept such records, plus the dancer was light skinned. Dance ability, body type (height appearance) were the standard requirements. Red786 (talk) 22:27, 21 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: Hello Red786, this is the talk page to discuss Wikipedia's instructions for using its Visual Editor software, so you seem to have ended up at the wrong page. You may be looking for our article on The Rockettes. Day Creature (talk) 22:58, 21 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
