Description

Since recently (~1 month), file names are being truncated on category pages on Commons, causing file names to end abruptly, where before the entire name could be visable (and copyable).

I can reproduce this only using Chrome. All other browsers display the filenames correctly. I think it was fine until recently, this might be a new bug in Chrome (I see the issue with Chromium 53).

Oh, I'm only seeing this problem with my staff account... testing...
Gah, it's a gadget: "Long Image Names in Categories" -- in the "Interface: Editing and uploads" section.

I guess close as invalid?

Yeah; could you file something at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_talk:Gadget-Long-Image-Names-in-Categories.js (or somewhere better?) instead?

The Chromium bug for this is https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=516709.

Looks like https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Gadget-Long-Image-Names-in-Categories.css&diff=204230582&oldid=202334041 fixed the issue.
