Bug#958161: wiki.debian.org: difficult to make small edits to large-ish pages



Package: wiki.debian.org
Severity: minor

Looking after bugs filled against unknown packages
Dear Wiki Maintainers,

This is probably a limitation of MoinMoin...

It is quite difficult to make small edits to large-ish pages (e.g. the 
one linked in my .sig):

1. Edit links are displayed only on the top and bottom of the page, 
instead of for each section (MediaWiki).

2. Consequently one is always editing the entire page. This makes it 
difficult to find the needed section and 'Preview' will reset your 
position.

This can be worked around by splitting pages, though this makes search 
within a page less useful.

Besides, having the 'Edit' button available next to each section is also 
a nice invitation to contribute (many people are not aware that a wiki 
is actually editable by users).

Having this feature would make small edits much easier.

Kind regards,
Andrei
