Problem: The wiki-markup detector sometimes finds wiki-markup which isn't there making it impossible to save (w/o going through source which is just time wasting).

Hi, can you please provide an example? Clicking on the notice makes the warning go away, though. Best,

Just realised it does go away when clicked on but it still needs fixing this is because it doesn't go away. For example I went to a random article on wp:en and went to VisualEditor. I added two [[ at the end of the page. The WikiMarkup notice came up, so I removed the [[ so it was exactly the same as when I first started but the WikiMarkup notice didn't go away.

Bug 51701 was fixed months ago and I can't reproduce your issue. Can you please tell me your browser/skin/operating system? Thanks.
