* '''Not available in talk or discussion namespaces''' – On Gamepedia, VisualEditor is only enabled in the Main and User namespaces. On pages other than those in the namespaces mentioned, the "Edit" button for VisualEditor is not available.
* '''Cannot edit a single section''' – VisualEditor loads and submits only entire pages. Clicking an "edit" link for a section causes VisualEditor to scroll to the section where the "edit" link was clicked. In VisualEditor's model, editing sections would be paradoxically slower than editing the whole page. Section editing does not reduce edit conflicts.
* '''Template parameters are wikitext, not rich edited''' – VisualEditor lets you edit the parameters of template transclusions, but only as "wikitext" (so "<code><nowiki>[[
* '''Nested templates aren't very easy''' (''e.g.'' <code><nowiki>{{Template1|{{Template2}}}}</nowiki></code>) – VisualEditor lets you edit template transclusions which themselves use templates ("nested" templates).
* '''Limited browser support''' – VisualEditor works only in relatively modern (last three years) versions of Chrome/Chromium, Firefox/Iceweasel, Internet Explorer 10 or higher, Safari, Opera, Midori, Qupzilla, SeaMonkey and WebPositive (approximately 93% of all users). VisualEditor does not yet work with Internet Explorer 9, and will never work with Internet Explorer 8 or older.<ref>[https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Target_browser_matrix VisualEditor target browser matrix]</ref>
