In ULS's "Select language" box (accessed by clicking the "English" button next to one's username on wikis such as Wikidata), clicking on one of the regions ("America", "Asia/Pacific", etc, in the map) causes the entire page to scroll down so that the top of the page is at the top of the relevant header, pushing the rest of the Select language box (including the search box and map), and much of the background page, off screen. A preferable behavior, I think, would be to just have the box containing the languages (.uls-language-list) scroll down to the header, without moving the surrounding page.
What browser are you using?
I can reproduce this on OSX 10.9.1 with Firefox 26.0 and Google Crome 31.0.1650.63. Steps to reproduce: 1. Go to URL (this must be a page that is taller than the browser window, i.e. has a vertical scroll bar) 2. Open ULS 3. Click "Europe" on the map (3rd area of 4). Observed: I. Page scrolls to Europe II. Language list scroll to Europe Expected: II. Page stays at the same level horizontal level III. Language list scrolls to Europe
