[Wikimedia-l] Deploying alpha of VisualEditor to non-English Wikipedias

[Takashi OTA]

I have been working on translation of Wikimedia Blog post written by
James, into Japanese.
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Blog/Drafts/Try_out_the_alpha_version_of_the_VisualEditor,_now_in_15_languages

To grasp actual behavior of VisualEditor and reflect it translation, I
myself enabled VisualEditor as well.
James wrote:
"Once enabled, for each article you can edit, you will get a second
editor tab labelled “VisualEditor” next to the “Edit” tab."
However, it seems that the new "Edit" tab now works as VisualEditor
and "Edit source" tab works as former "Edit" did.
Is that correct? Or am I confusing?
