Created attachment 11156 [details] Screenshot of standard message translation page having two instances of an English message, where differing versions are shown. In the attached screen shot you find the English message twice: - as part of the list of supportive messages - as the original message The message texts shown for them differ. Also, there is a diff shown between the current and the previous version. Like message contents, it supports that the "original" has the older version, and the "support language" lists the newer version of the message. This seems to be a spurious bug, since I had few instances of messages having "original" and "support language" identical, including ones having diffs displayed, shortly before and after this one, but from different message groups. A caching issue?
We're waiting for your patch set in Gerrit that backports message changes in MessagesEn.php to MediaWiki release branches. This is not a bug, it's a feature.
