Space at the end of grouped user list
Open, Needs TriagePublicBUG REPORT

Description

As in the screenshots below, there's now a space at the end of the bracketed user list that appears when the "group results by page" option is enabled, which I don't believe was there before. I see this on all skins with safe mode on.

This could be related to the recent rollout of Temporary accounts on the English Wikipedia, but I couldn't tell you.

I can reproduce this if I enable "Turn on the ability to display IP addresses of temporary accounts" in my preferences, but not otherwise. That feature is a part of the CheckUser extension.

Caused by the code here: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/extensions/CheckUser/+/9fae4d5ccb8023ef806ad3651bbb14736959972e/modules/ext.checkUser.styles/userInfoCard.less#49

That references T398350. I don't think this was the intended effect. Was there supposed to be a similar space added at the start of the list, or something?

The extra space is added on the left if you enable UserInfoCard using "Enable the user info card" in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering

From what I can see this isn't temporary accounts related, but CheckUser-UserInfoCard related (even though technically the issue is seen if you use CheckUser temporary accounts related features).

I think the fix would be to not add the extra space if the UserInfoCard is not enabled for the user. Re-tagging the task based on this.
