We have found few bugs and enhancements to be
reported.
What is the appropriate component for this project.

I cannot locate InlineEditor. Inline scripts if the correct component?
Ah, looking forward to see what you've come up with! Like Roan and Chad said, the
InlineEditor component is now in the list, so you can add bugs there.
Very cool. Took me a minute to figure out how to use
it, but once I did I
really liked it. I think the user should have some way to correct any
incorrectly parsed sentences though. Doing this would help develop a better
sentence boundary parser in the long run too.
Yeah, thought about that, but I think that anything not related to actually editing the
wikitext might be distracting and confusing, so I would recommend not do do this.
I completely missed the "You can edit the article
below, by clicking on
blue elements in the page." line. Only found after thinking "this needs
some kind of notice on how to edit, since it's not clear what to do to
change the page...".
in usability testing I also found that people don't read texts like that at all.
That's one of the reasons I removed the different edit modes. It was also clear,
however, that just by moving the mouse over the screen and seeing text being highlighted,
there wasn't any need to read that kind of notices, as all users understood the
concept very quickly. After that they would search for a save button, and would find the
publish button after looking around for a bit.
If you have suggestions how to make it more clear how this works it would be appreciated,
but there already is a minimum of text and notices on the screen right now.
