Anyone having the issue where the Visual Editor is converting Media tags ([[Media:file.pdf|example]] to protocol-relative external link ([\\sitename\path\file.pdf example])?

Thank you for the response - i have manually updated the modules/ve-mw/dm/annotations/ve.dm.MWInternalLinkAnnotation.js file using the https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/454860


It looks like Media link is back but would like your feedback before implementing the change in the live wiki

To me the change did nothing, the [[Media: ]] link still gets replaced by [[\\localhost\...]].

Hello, just an update to my last post: After having rebooted the wiki-server, everything went swell, the [[Media:...]] links remained, and I can now edit pages just like that. Thank you everyone for your support.
