As selecting text is a basic operation, bumping to a major issue.

It seems related to the <translate> tag, try it on another page like https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Basic_example_worksheet

I tried editing 2 pages on MediaWiki wiki so far and it did not work as I expected. If it can't deal with <translate> tags, it must be disabled on these pages. Thank you.

Hey, sorry for the confusion; merging with bug 50643 which is about disabling Firefox's misleading interface.
