VE scrolls down to the bottom after converting pasted wikitext
Closed, ResolvedPublic1 Estimated Story Points

Description

  1. Go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_Arizona_Cardinals_season?veaction=edit (or open any other long article in VE)
  2. Copy {{welcome}} into a plain text box, then from there into VE
  3. A "Converting wikitext" dialog appears with a progress bar
  4. The dialog disappears and the template is inserted, but the editor scrolls to the bottom, so the pasted template is not in view

This scrolling should not happen.
