The Errors
Steps to reproduce:
1.Open an editor which has a text with reference and the reflist
For example:
text with reference[1]
↑ ref
2.Try to paste it into a different page
Observed Result:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined appears and nothing gets pasted.
However the "Save Page" button is active and clicking on that gives the error:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot call method 'getRange' of undefined
Version: unspecified
Severity: major
Attached:
Test Environment: betalabs
Browser: Chrome Version 26.0.1410.65
OS: MAC OS X 10. 8. 5
Example Page with reference and reflist: :http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Bold?veaction=edit
I am escalating this issue, because it is now reproducible in production:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ and after this action copy-paste does not work from one VE to another.
In production, go to this page :https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:RYasmeen_%28WMF%29/12th_december&veaction=edit
Copy the last reference along with reference list and try to paste it into another page.
And after that nothing can be copied into the other VE

Checked the fix in production.The issue specified in this bug is fixed.Reference is getting pasted with reference list and the subsequent elements are getting copy-pasted properly.But still there is a problem with pasting reference :(
The reference is getting copied as an empty <ref/> tags and on edit mode it says
The reference is defined in a template or other generated block and for now can only be edited in source mode.
In read mode: There is an error:Cite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad name (see the help page).
Should I create a different issue ticket for that?
