• Deskana raised the priority of this task from High to Unbreak Now!.Apr 16 2015, 5:01 AM
• Deskana added subscribers: Jdforrester-WMF, • Deskana.

I reproduced this myself (Chrome 41, Mac OS 10.9.5). Went to a random nonexistent page and tapped edit. This isn't just limited to the UI looking bad, it also prevents you from writing anything in the window, so it effectively totally breaks VE.

Given that this is broken in production, I am speculatively increasing priority. @Jdforrester-WMF should assess this ASAP.

I turned all my gadgets off and the problem went away. So it's probably an issue with the default gadgets.

• Deskana added a comment.Apr 16 2015, 6:07 AM

Narrowed it down to this gadget: https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-editsection0.js

• Deskana added a comment.Apr 16 2015, 6:14 AM

Disregard the above, it was a red herring. This problem appears to be related to the user's language choice: I can reproduce this problem if my language is set to Swedish, but not if it's set to English.

LanguageSelector is not deployed, so it can't be at fault. In the video I don't see you using ULS, so that's not relevant either.

I don't know what causes the popup in the video nor what it says. If it's an invitation to translate, it might be related to ContentTranslation. Otherwise, it's a VE issue.

Given the mismatch between sidebar and background, this seems a typical unclosed div or similar...

Jdforrester-WMF added a comment.Apr 16 2015, 3:19 PM

It looks like a site script issue (this is why it only affects you if your user language is the content language of the wiki, unlike gadgets which run whichever language you have set).

I've not been able to narrow it down yet. It's plausible that [[ https://sv.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Common.js&curid=526163&diff=29743563&oldid=29724019 | this edit to Common.js]] may have broken it, but I can't see why if so.

(Normally site screw-ups like this aren't tracked in Phabricator, but I don't see a reason to close this task whilst it's worked out.)

Great to have this fixed, thanks! So if I understand it correctly, this </div> error has been around since 30 May 2014 and just recently been discovered or am I missing something here?

Fix confirmed on at least Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv 40.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/40.0, however I was affected by T93964: Progress bar moves backwards sometimes or something, the bar went backwards :P
