That's good to know. The main point of that comment was actually the second half of the sentence i.e that they're probably there due to bugs in CX/VE (and so perhaps not something to care about in this context).

The sign-up at auth.wikimedia.org to report a bug has a field for "Email address (optional)" but later in the process an email address becomes mandatory.

As for this issue, I believe the reason you are being asked for an email later in the process is due to an entirely separate rollout taking place intended to limit abuse, which is WE4.2 Bot detection (WE4.2 hCaptcha editing trial) .

This task feels like it should be considered by someone who actually uses accessibility technology because it would be adding some repetition to someone navigating by section (e.g. heading -> next link -> next link and each of those next links would post-change read out as the same text as the heading which I anticipate would be annoying). I would be surprised if these links are navigated to differently (for example, navigating by all links would be surprising, but in the realm of possible).

Ah, I had the fix narrowly target divs for navboxes. Can't do the same for tables because of fostering reasons. Short of hoisting deeper -- into the "last" <td> -- which feels very ugly, I don't have a good Parsoid-side solution at this point.

Yeah, it was a super-big parenthetical. (The infobox template does something similar to that kind of hoisting today but it's ugly and I plan to get rid of it at some point when that gets rewritten.)

Izno added a comment to T407450: Layout breaks at fractional viewport widths between integer-based min-width and max-width media queries.

The fundamental fix is to use media query range syntax from Media Queries Level 4. Problem is that implementation is only about 3.5 years old (Safari is a little younger at about 3 years old), though Firefox has partial support for the past 7.

Izno added a comment to T214998: RFC: Serve mobile and desktop variants through the same URL (unified mobile routing).

That was done some time ago, and isn't particularly related to this task. T198949: Add navbox links to mobile page HTML There's other still-open friends in that context.

Izno added a comment to T391418: MediaSearch: "Sobbing" results in train media.

I didn't know search had a thesaurus!

I think this is simple suffix stripping and it is part of the language support for stemming.

Here I'm making the not-funny that crying also results in sob trains. I fully understand that stemming is how we're ending up at sob trains for the sobbing case.

Izno added a comment to T404454: Revisit whether it make sense for MobileFrontend to have a desktop toggle.

I'm not sure if all the major browsers we support have a native "desktop mode" setting.

Ok, the adjustment of the title makes the suggested lint make sense.

Izno added a comment to T406898: Lint ref tags that start with *#:; chars where the lists have a single list item.

I'm confused by the description? Parsoid does a better job making list items out of extension content and editors are already intending them to be lists so we want to add a lint so people stop using them as lists....?

Izno added a comment to T407077: Scribunto: Logic works in Preview but fails on Save, creating ghost category links at ko.wiktionary.

You should ask these questions on the module's home wiki's talk page. They may be able to assist better than the audience usually-unfamiliar with modules on Phabricator, but beyond that this module appears to be quite complicated.

Izno added a comment to T406637: Sortable table header does not follow ARIA guidelines for button.

It also doubles up on roles, which is no longer allowed

Multiple roles are allowed actually. The consuming system must treat the element as if it were of the first "non-abstract" role per ARIA 1.2 (2023). This hasn't changed in the editor's draft for 1.3. (Authors are required not to use the abstract roles. The same section in ARIA 1.1 [2017] indeed had little to say regarding multiple roles.)
