Disable "This is not an article; this is a disambiguation page," box

Hi, Is there any way I can disable the "This is not an article; this is a disambiguation page," light brown box that comes up?, I find it more of a hinderance than of help, Many thanks, Kind Regards, –Davey2010^Talk 18:31, 9 October 2023 (UTC)

It looks like that pop-up is how VE displays {{Disambig editintro}}. Presumably, you could hack your personal .js file to hide it. There is some related discussion at MediaWiki talk:Common.js. – Jonesey95 (talk) 00:18, 10 October 2023 (UTC)

Infobox references/citations

I deleted 2 references from an infobox using Source editor {one was already in the article's References list, the other is now after I added text and the reference to the article which should have been added over a year ago}. Should I have been able to delete them using VE? Mcljlm (talk) 16:16, 19 October 2023 (UTC)

Where can I find the percentage of edits to date that were made using VE?

You might be able to get that from Wikipedia:Request a query, but I suggest that the question you're asking might not tell you what you really want to know. For example: since Wikipedia's creation, or just since the visual editor existed? Or during the last year, so you can find out about current usage patterns? And do you want to include bot edits? Twinkle and AWB? Or just "manual" edits by humans? WhatamIdoing (talk) 06:33, 1 November 2023 (UTC)

Auto-save / Saving a draft

If I edit an article but accidentally close the tab before saving (or my browser crashes), is a draft auto-saved? Or is there a way to save a draft before publishing the changes? —danhash (talk) 20:47, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
