This is caused by https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/plugins/gitiles/mediawiki/extensions/Echo/+/refs/heads/master/modules/mobile/overlay.js#16. transitionend should only be listened for if there's a transition with a duration (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce removes the transition duration).

BrandonXLF added a comment to T334443: Use interface language direction for printfooter.

@Jdlrobson I noticed that lang, dir, and mw-content-dir are used quite a few times throughout MediaWiki and extensions. Would it be beneficial to add a helper function like Html::languageWrap that creates a div with the required attributes?

BrandonXLF added a comment to T317258: Replica templatelinks table is broken for some sites.

This is due to the work for T299417: Normalize templatelinks table.

For dewiki, the table only has 3 columns when it should have 5 (it's missing tl_title and tl_namespace).

No, the current state is correct, since dewiki has been migrated to the new schema.

BrandonXLF added a comment to T278973: Add a way to differentiate transcluding a redirect and transcluding a redirect and its target.

From what I can tell the only way to solve this would be to add more fields to existing tables that track if the transclusion is directly caused by wikitext, create a new table that stores "template links" rather than transclusions, or to only store direct transclusions in the templatelinks table. The first two options would require changes to the database.

BrandonXLF added a comment to T278236: Add *_direct_link to imagelinks and templatelinks.

That mostly works, but there are still issues if it's done that way. Let's say template A redirects to template B. If page 1 transcludes template A and template B, but page 2 just transcludes template A, they will appear the same in the templatelinks table, making it impossible for WhatLinksHere to correctly display links.
