Since it's been almost a month now with no fixes or responses, I think we should take some temporary measures regarding the visual editor and the qref template since it makes it hard to catch vandalism and errors when anons use the visual editor. The only idea I could come up with is to temporarily disable anon edits until the problem is fixed. 02:35, June 29, 2014 (UTC)

This has nothing to do with videos. SeaTerror (talk) 06:51, June 29, 2014 (UTC)

I put it here because we also discussed this above. 08:16, June 29, 2014 (UTC)

After pushing so hard last year so that anons and new users would be allowed to edit after that legal fiasco that is still affecting some wikis, I am hesitant to follow your suggestion. A few bad apples may seem to spoil the whole bunch, but it really doesn't. 05:29, July 1, 2014 (UTC)

Some users also use it too anyway. SeaTerror (talk) 05:44, July 1, 2014 (UTC)

Stopping anons editing isn't going to fix this. All they're going to do is make an account and do the exact same thing, and that's not including existing users who use visual editor. All we can do is wait until we get the option to disable visual editor, and keep fixing pages.

Most of the time those people who use visual editor need to be undone anyway. SeaTerror (talk) 09:09, July 1, 2014 (UTC)
