Description

In the beta instance, visiting a random article like
http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Marching_arts as anonymous user does not show ULS cog in the interlanguages position($wgULSPosition = 'interlanguage')

This happens only for articles without inter language links.

The #p-lang element is hidden by Wikibase extensions wikibase.client.nolanglinks modules css:

#p-lang {
display: none;
}

This was injected by Wikibase Clients onBeforePageDisplay hook and happens when no language links to be shown.

Cannot say this as a bug from Wikibase Client, it is done for a purpose, but we need to find a way to make both extensions work together.

This is a simple patch assuming making the languages section visible from ULS side wont have any side effects for Wikibase Client

To clarify, will this also make the "Add links" button visible to anons (who do have item-create on wikidata, but are probably less interested)?

No.

Confirmed on URL.
Of course there's the bogus (un)collapsing arrow now, but that's a separate ULS bug, already filed IIRC.

Verified in Wikidata demo sprint 22-6

Just for the record, this was removed in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/195077/1, but that didn't seem to cause any regressions.
