I have a personal wiki running on mediawiki and don't think I really need to track the page edit summary or whatsoever, so is there anyway to skip it? which means when I am done with editing on a page and click on Save, it just Save the page without asking me to describe what I changed..
Thank you!
Hello all,
I have had a quick look at this, and decided it was too much of a specific hack. But for all of you asking this question, see the file:
VisualEditor/modules/ve-mw/init/targets/ve.init.mw.ArticleTarget.js
where you will find this function:
ve.init.mw.ArticleTarget.prototype.showSaveDialog
and I'm pretty sure that is where the magic happens. It isn't just a simple case of saying "skip the dialogue" because there are numerous messages that are handled.

Adding this at the beginning of ve.init.mw.ArticleTarget.prototype.showSaveDialog
this.save(this.getDocToSave(), this.getSaveOptions());
this.tryTeardown(true);
return;
Seems to save the changes without annoying popup and leave the editing mode. But it still requires a manual page refresh (or clicking the Page tab) to see the saved changes.
A better way is to replace
`var openPromise = windowAction.open( 'mwSave', data, action );` with `var openPromise = windowAction.open( 'mwSave', data, 'save' );`
This opens the pop-up, but closes it again immediately and the user is taken back to the reading view without having to refresh the page. The briefly opened pop-up bothers me less than having to manually switch back to the reading view.
