Description Aaron Halfaker 2013-10-04 21:14:48 UTC
Steps to reproduce:
1. Start editing a page as anon
2. Click "Create account" and fill out form
3. Get redirected to Special:GettingStarted

The link on the bottom to return to what I was doing says "Go back to the page I was reading".  But I was editing.  Note that clicking on the link does bring back the edit view.  My only concern is about the wording.
Comment 1 Steven Walling 2013-10-16 06:19:11 UTC
Yes, if we stick with sending users through Special:GettingStarted, we need to either fix this wording, or simply not interrupt users who were editing (like we do in the test version of [[m:R:OB6]])
Comment 2 Steven Walling 2014-01-08 18:10:39 UTC
This may be invalid soon since we're removing the Special page in favor of modals.
Comment 3 Steven Walling 2014-02-08 02:02:23 UTC
We've removed the Special page now.
