This has been a longstanding issue and the subject of other bugs (not sure if @kaldari remembers the fate of those). It's tricky to solve.

@Nirzar should the first close icon inside the editor overlay be the X button similar to the language overlay and subsequent icons are a left arrow?

@ovasileva In triage, I suggested this might need a spike, but having revisiting it this morning, I just realised that this particular issue is a lot simpler than the more generic issue of sharing edit link and quite trivially fixed if we want to. This could easily be solved by using replaceState or strengthening the if statement to only run once:

The offending code is in resources/skins.minerva.newusers/init.js
[ignore this is incorrect]

We'd need to look at that logic. I'd suggest if we do work on this we scope it to a certain number of hours as it may be trickier than we might expect.

@Jdlrobson: Normally I'm a fan of your ruthless triaging, but this seems like a legit bug.

T125174 will resolve it. The issue is with Special:MobileEditor which will be removed with T125174. We can stall it and then revisit it then, but i'd worry I'd forget to do that :)

If you don't mind, I could help you with that :)
