This appears to a fault CN for the fundraising testing.

There seems to be like 2 different bugs here:

1. The banner is obviously partly broken with %AVERAGE% and RDRDRDRDRDRDRDRD
2. mwEmbed JS problem

+ the DB error I noticed in the enwiki logs. I mitigated the assumptions that CN made that it would be running on the correct wiki...

Just reporting that I'm not getting the dialog anymore. I saw the banner, closed it and after loading other wikipedia pages it didn't show anymore.

On behalf of the fundraising team I apologize -- we did have a bug in one of the banners that caused this behavior in countries with '$' as part of their currency string. I thought I had fixed this issue on Friday; apparently not.

Even though you're not still seeing this issue does not unfortunately mean that others are not. Would you kindly visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random?reset=1 and report back on if you saw a banner, and if so if it hung?

If it did hang; it would be very useful to me if you could visit https://bits.wikimedia.org/geoiplookup and tell me what that reports your country as.

Thanks.

As I said earlier, since reporting the bug it was quickly fixed and I haven't had any wikipedia pupage hang on me and the banner has indeed appeared a couple of times. Country on geo look up: "country":"DO" (Dominican Republic).

Cool; I'll mark this as fixed then :)

Thanks! The response to this was very quick, even though it seems to be a problem that didn't happen to a lot of people.
