On https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Pedro_Aguiar?uselang=en#Cartazismo if I put the mouse over the signature of user "Aleph73", it says the user "Last edited 8 years ago", but this is not correct, as the latest edit by that user is https://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=37874057 from January 2014.
In the Firefox console, I see the following API request when the popup shows up: https://pt.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&format=json&prop=extracts|pageimages|revisions|info&redirects=true&exintro=true&exsentences=2&explaintext=true&piprop=thumbnail&pithumbsize=300&rvprop=timestamp&inprop=watched&indexpageids=true&titles=Usu%C3%A1rio%28a%29%3AAleph73 The data returned is this: { "query": { "pageids": [ "265488" ], "pages": { "265488": { "pageid": 265488, "ns": 2, "title": "Usu\u00e1rio(a):Aleph73", "extract": "Designer gr\u00e1fico brasileiro.", "revisions": [ { "timestamp": "2006-05-04T06:48:52Z" } ], "contentmodel": "wikitext", "pagelanguage": "pt", "touched": "2013-12-16T22:07:20Z", "lastrevid": 2001783, "counter": "", "length": 265 } } } } It seems the popup is taking the date of the latest edit to the user's talk page[1] instead of his lastest contribution. This is not what the user expects to see in that popup. [1] https://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=2001783
In the short-term, this will be solved via bug 63181 ("Only have Hovercards turned on for links to namespace 0 (mainspace)"). Hovercards isn't aiming to implement these kinds of features (as seen in Navpopups), at least for now. (Instead of closing this bug, I'll mark it as low priority/enhancement.)
