Bug with section edit links[edit]

Just to note: the 'edit' links next to each section header don't seem to be working at the moment, e.g. [1] gives a "Cannot find section" error message. I'm not familiar enough with the translate coding to be able to spot the problem here... Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 18:12, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That is related to the Translate extension. The bug is documented on Phabricator and is on the workboard for the extension. --Varnent (talk)(COI) 18:44, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks @Varnent:! Something seems to have changed, and some of the edit links now work, but they point to the wrong sections! E.g. the one next to 'Diversity' is [2], which edits the 'Innovation and risk' section! (hence the mis-edit I just made and had to fix...) Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 19:51, 6 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Varnent: the 4th question "Diversity" seems to show up in the contents only sporadically. Smallbones (talk) 15:13, 5 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That is another bug with the translation extension. Basically the job queue that updates each of the pages sometimes gets stuck. We can try a null edit to nudge it along, but it's not something we can override or fix directly. --Varnent (talk)(COI) 16:45, 5 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
