(META: I have to wonder why Wikimedia-l was chosen as the venue for this
conversation. Visual Editor is deployed and working in quite a few of our
projects, including very active ones and "difficult" ones such as the
right-to-left Hebrew Wikipedia; this discussion, then, is very much about
the English Wikipedia and VE, and would be appropriate in a venue more
specific to ENWP -- whether list or wiki.)

I think having a two part RfC with the first part
discussing the minimum
conditions the community would like VE to meet before having a discussion
about more widely enabling VE in the second portion of the RfC makes sense.
This raises the possibility that as VE becomes more and more functional
that the community will incrementally approve of wider default use over
time and different presentations of VE to editors.
There are a lot of options for how extensively VE could be enabled and how
it can be presented to users with the community's consent, which we can
discuss in the second portion of the RfC. I have a draft for that portion
off-wiki that I will tweak depending on how the first portion looks before
I put it on-wiki for other editors to review.
Risker, would you like to set up the first portion of this, if this
arrangement sounds good to you?
