Hi!
I request Japanese Wikipedeans to test this new great function at jawiki's noticebord([[:ja:Wikipedia:お知らせ#新機能「VisualEditor」の試験協力のお願い]]. https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:%E3%81%8A%E7%9F%A5%E3%82%89%E3%81%9B...
I wrote there "You may write your feedback in Japanese" to get more effective feedbacks. So, feel free to request me (or others) to translate them into English.
thanks,

Hi, now it's confirmed and ready for distribution:
Next week we are going to focus on testing VisualEditor in conjunction with non-Latin scripts: العربية, Ελληνικά, 한국어, हिन्दी, עברית , 日本 語, Русский, 中文 and more.
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Testing_Non-Latin_Characters_Inp...
The testing will be done at the English Wikipedia (primarily in User pages), where VisualEditor can be enabled. Any editor can contribute, regardless of testing / technical experience and even knowledge of languages in those scripts. For instance, copying texts from http://ru.wikipedia.org/ or http://ja.wikipedia.org/ and playing with them in your User page is also a good starting point.
Of course we welcome the participation of editors from projects based on non-Latin scripts. Your help as ambassadors connecting with your communities is especially needed! A main incentive is that good testing coverage of VisualEditor in a specific script plus good community involvement might lead to its inclusion in the related Wikipedia(s) for broader testing.
If you have any questions or feedback please comment at Talk:VisualEditor/Testing Non-Latin Characters Input and Behavior or send me an email. Thank you!
