Description Henrik Thiil Nielsen 2014-06-28 16:46:23 UTC
Intention:
Displaying the page

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click "Special pages" in the sidebar.
2. Under the heading "Redirecting special pages", click the link "Random page in category".

Actual Results:  
A full stop character (".") appears after the pushbutton.

Expected Results:  
There should not be a full stop character in this place

Reproducible: Always

Needless to say, this also occurs in Chrome and Mozilla. It occurs in the skins I have tested: Cavendish, MonoBook, Cologne Blue, Modern and Vector.

OTOH, the block of text:


Get random page from category: ________________ .

forms a sentence. I'm unsure if the period is appropriate or not.
