Hi! Thanks for enabling Flow at Latvian Wikipedia. Will have feedback later (probably at WT:Flow), but now I have some error. When I try to add description for this page, I get an error "Previous revision identifier is missing". OK, I understand why I could get it (because it is the first version of it), but this should be fixed.

Also, what generates those categories? The second one is in French...

Hi! Re: editing the description, I've just filed phab:T110358.

Re: categories: That's a bug related to wikidata (affecting many wikis), and is being worked on right now: phab:T108467.

Thanks!

Thanks! Also noticed, that when I try to edit my post (at lvwiki), the "loading" is too long. I waited some 2 minutes, then pressed "Cancel" :(

Re: loading time, Is that a consistently-reproducible bug? (i.e. does it occur every-time) - I've tried just now and it loaded after approximately 1 second.

Perhaps try a hard-refresh (ctrl-F5 in most browsers - or en:Wikipedia:Bypass your cache for details).

If it is consistent, please let me know what errors (if any) you see in your webconsole (browser-specific instructions for finding that, at en:Wikipedia:Reporting JavaScript errors)

Yes, it is consistent. Note: it happens only in Monobook, in Vector it loaded after some 1-2 seconds. Tested with (latest) Firefox, both on Win XP and Win7.

Logged-in with my testing account, I got such errors, but they probably aren't related to this problem.

The last post was mine.

Oh, it looks like, that I can edit posts here. Even in Monobook.

There are some errors happening more at Latvian Wikipedia. Like, when I (in Wikitext mode) try to preview, I got error "Error: One or more dependencies failed to load". So I suppose we (lvwiki and other projects) don't get stable version, but some testing version?

I'm only getting that error on Lvwp (e.g. this works fine: https://ca.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viquip%C3%A8dia_Discussi%C3%B3:Flow/proves?useskin=monobook ) I think it might be related to the error you mentioned above? Let's try again, once that monobook error is fixed. (All wikimedia wikis get the same "master" version, which is always the latest version, following the standard mediawiki weekly release schedule (Wikitech:Deployments/One week) plus any other rapid fixes that need to be deployed during the week)

OK, now it seems fine. Removed this code. Thanks, I also found one more error, that I was looking for, so double thanks :) Would like to "hire" some dev to inspect the code for w:lv:mediawiki:Common.js and skin-specific files. We most probably have some old, unneeded code there. We don't have so tecnical community :)

OK, the last thing, that annoys me. "12 hours ago". At lvwiki, when page is loading, it shows "pirms 12 stundām", which is completely OK. When the page is loaded, it shows "12 stundas agrāk" (not so OK). But I can't find the corresponding Mediawiki message (using uselang=qqx).

Re: timestamp changing - strange, I've filed it as Phab:T110934. Thanks again. :)
