Grants talk:IdeaLab/Drag-n-drop references between articles

Visual editor

@TGCP: Have you tried the visual editor? You can't actually drag references between windows but you can copy the "[1]" from one window and paste it into another; it will automatically transfer all the reference's content between the windows.—Neil P. Quinn-WMF (talk) 01:14, 15 March 2016 (UTC)

I am using VE for references, but did not know this - will check it out soon.--Sphilbrick (talk) 15:00, 15 March 2016 (UTC)

Seems to work reasonably well, although not as easy as a simple dragNdrop. Perhaps limiting refcopy to RegUsers also limits refspam; if non-reg users could dragNdrop refs, they could cause too much mess. TGCP (talk) 17:42, 15 March 2016 (UTC)

April 12 Proposal Deadline: Is your project ready for funding?

The deadline for Individual Engagement Grant (IEG) submissions this round is April 12th, 2016. If you’ve developed your idea into a project that would benefit from funding, consider applying!

To apply, you must (1) create a draft request using the “Expand into an Individual Engagement Grant” button on your idea page, (2) complete the proposal entirely, filling in all empty fields, and (3) change the status from "draft" to "proposed." As soon as you’re ready, you should begin to invite any communities affected by your project to provide feedback on your proposal talk page.

If you have any questions about IEG or would like support in developing your proposal, we're hosting a few proposal help sessions this month in Google Hangouts:

• April 5th, 16:00 - 17:00 UTC
• April 8th 1:00 - 2:00 UTC
• April 12th 16:00 - 17:00 UTC

I'm also happy to set up an individual session. With thanks, I JethroBT (WMF) 00:38, 2 April 2016 (UTC)
