Event Timeline

I'm unable to reproduce this locally when performing the exact same edit, as far as I can tell:

If anyone can figure out how to reproduce it, it's likely an easy fix.

Even stranger:

It's as if that text is completely missing in the diff view...

I also can't reproduce this on this install, in the example link:

Cannot reproduce nowadays, https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T154071#2918712 and https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T154071#2920748 look as expected.

Either a heisenbug or something has changed in the meantime (server side, or maybe local browser add-ons interfering?).

Closing this task as nobody can reproduce. Please reopen if you still see this or if this happens again. Thanks!
