Sorry to ask the obvious, but did you try logging out and logging in again?

Yes, logging out and back in again didn't solve the problem.

I should also note that they were successfully able to add several other language links on other articles they'd created a few days ago. The problem started only with this article, which is (IIRC) their fourth one.

Error!

I can replicate it too...

Attached:

When I try this widget on that page I get a different error message:

An unexpected error occurred: [Exception... "" nsresult: "0x805e0006 ()" location: "JS frame :: https://bits.wikimedia.org/ru.wikipedia.org/load.php?debug=true&lang=en&modules=jquery%2Cmediawiki&only=scripts&skin=vector&version=20140904T182600Z :: .send :: line 9592" data: no].

I believe this was caused by I171db949bdec7fc56228023d0f449301ec470b12, and left a comment explaining why.

In my network console, I see my enwp edit token being passed to Wikidata, which obviously won't work. It retries again, fetching a new edit token from enwp to use on wikidata, which fails again, displaying an error to the user.

I came to report this bug as well on behalf of two users on nowiki who both have the same issue: https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Torget#Problemer_med_interwiki

The error they are getting is "En uventet feil oppsto. 1$ - Invalid token.". I have no idea why it says 1$ and not $1 -- it's not from the system message translation, since that is (and always has been) correct. May not even be relevant at all, but worth keeping in mind.

Scratch my last paragraph, it is apparently $1 and not 1$ (likely just a typo from one of the people who reported it).

Should be fixed in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/158599/

we plan to deploy the fix on Monday.

This error is returned and in the Chechen wikipedia.

For example, try to associate the article with the Russian

Thank you.
