@PPelberg (WMF) @Whatamidoing (WMF) Hello, try to reply here and here and here to comment by Whatamidoing. I see [ reply ] at user talk of Martin Urbanec, by I can not reply. And at my user page I cannot see any [ reply ] link behind comment by Whatamidoing. It is stange...
Topic on Talk:Talk pages project/Replying/Flow
Patriccck, could you please look at Help:DiscussionTools/Why can't I reply to this comment? and tell me if you can find the explanation there? I need someone to read that help page and see if it makes sense.
@Whatamidoing (WMF) Yes, it makes sense, but see coment by Matěj Suchánek.
I can reproduce this. There is really nothing to understand. The point is the [ reply ] link next to your signature is shown on Martin Urbanec's talk page but not that of Patriccck (despite your contribution being identical).
@Patriccck or @Matěj Suchánek: can you please share a screenshot showing a [ reply ] link appearing after the first comment in Editing news 2020 #4 on Patriccck's talk page?
I'm not seeing a [ reply ] link. This is expected to me considering the timestamp in this edit exists after the closing </div> tag. This leads me to think the software considers this to be a signature that does not contain a time and date. See: Help:DiscussionTools/Why can't I reply to this comment?#No date and time.
cc @Matma Rex in case they see errors in the thinking above.
Neither can I now reproduce this (but I'm sure I could). The post on Patriccck's page is now archived but when I navigate to the archive, I cannot get the link displayed (but I do get it displayed at other posts). And it isn't shown on Martin's page anymore.
@Matěj Suchánek But in history I can see a reply link. In current version I could not see the link. Hmm, what happend?
Confirm, me too. It's worth noting that it (still) isn't shown in the history of your talk page.
Note that it's Thursday today when the new version should be deployed. It might be better to wait for it and check again later.
Having taken another look, I can see an empty section "Editing news 2020 #3" with an unclosed <div>. Looks like the distribution of that newsletter wasn't correct and there may be other pages broken by this. That's irrelevant, we are discussing Patriccck's talk page.
I've seen the bug on one of the cs.wp pages when I looked at this a few days ago, but I forgot to reply here. And now I can't reproduce it there :)
I was, however, able to reproduce a simplified version of the bug here: https://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/User_talk:Yatu
Note how when you click "reply", the placeholder text is "Reply to Yatu" instead of "Reply to Test". Something goes very wrong, and the wrong username comes from the "edit source" link on the sub-heading rather than from the actual signature. (And then the reply can't be saved, because we can't find any comment by "Yatu" on the page.)
I filed T262573 about this.
