Thank you for the report — we're aware and working on resolving this :) This appears to be a different error than reported at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Meta_talk:AddMe#Broken (and perhaps again a different issue than I'm thinking of at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_talk:Gadgets-definition#addMe ...!)

Just logging for detail: when attempting to vote from a category page (e.g. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Wishlist_Survey_2023/Admins_and_patrollers):

API response

{"error":{"code":"nosuchsection","info":"There is no section T-2.","*":"See https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/api.php for API usage. Subscribe to the mediawiki-api-announce mailing list at <https://lists.wikimedia.org/postorius/lists/mediawiki-api-announce.lists.wikimedia.org/> for notice of API deprecations and breaking changes."},"servedby":"mw1377"}

The section requested on https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Wishlist_Survey_2023/Admins_and_patrollers, T-2, does not exist hence the error.

Seems resolved now — feel free to re-open if any issues reoccur
