From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

I understood what you meant, but I didn't see your first post until after I'd already replied to Shambala.

1. I use Google Chrome because this wikia doesn't work on IE. (It used to, but it no longer does. Anyway...) The editor is very slow, so when I hit the edit button, it initially freezes my screen. Sometimes as I'm editing it also randomly seizes up too.

2. The first day it was active, I kept trying to add links and I would get as far as highlighting, selecting the page I wanted to link to, and then it wouldn't do anything. No matter what I clicked it kept deselecting my link. I became frustrated and started looking for alternate ways to add in my links and that's when I realized there was a Source Editor option, which presented its own problems.

3. In Source Editor, instead of bringing up just the edit section you're trying to edit (for example, I was working on just the Mels section of the River Song page yesterday), it brings up coding for the entire page and you have to painstakingly scroll through to find the section you want. (This is really irritating if you're working on something in the middle.) Worse still, if you want to make sure that something looks right before your submit it, there's no preview option. You have to go back to the visual editor and if it's incorrect, then you're forced to go back to Source Editor and start hunting for your section all over again.
