In practice edit.php.net is quite difficult to use. For example the preview just does not work for me. Reviewing commits is also a not entirely fun task in it. > I think we’d still keep edit.php.net.

People don't need to be able to edit stuff on a website - they need to be able to see whether their changes: i) Break the build. ii) Look correct. Neither of those things are related to an online editor - but are related to automated builds and branches, the tools for which are much more potent now than they were when the original docs were created. cheers Dan
