and try to delete the file and logging in, no matter what i do, it is locked in an infinite loop. I have rights to delete (an admin on commons)

Another permissions bug that we've dealt with recently: T74877

Sorry, I can't really test that because I don't have any rights to delete. Seems like a serious problem if this problem persists for everyone.

I was not able to reproduce. I undeleted and redeleted the Nosferatu file from the Commons mobile site with no problems. Perhaps it was fixed by https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/178793/. Matanya, can you still reproduce?

Yes, able. it only happens if i didn't login to desktop view before.

Seemed to be caused by T87290

@Matanya: Now that T87290 is fixed, can you still reproduce this?

Matanya claimed this task.

No longer, thanks.
