Comment 2 Ryan Kaldari 2014-07-08 00:08:13 UTC 
Sounds like another lazy-loading bug.
Comment 3 Jon 2014-07-08 16:58:10 UTC 
OT: I notice you are testing VisualEditor in alpha since the bug is assigned to alpha. Please don't.... Please use beta which is more stable and will help us filter out bugs in VE vs bugs in mobile.

Can you confirm the above problem happens in the alpha mode or is it beta mode (it does indeed sound like alpha)?
Comment 4 Jon 2014-07-08 17:27:07 UTC 
Just checked with Rumana and it's actually an issue in beta mode too.
So not necessarily related to ajax page loading/link hijacking :)
Comment 5 Ryan Kaldari 2014-07-21 21:33:31 UTC 
Reproducing this bug is currently blocked by bug 68249.
Comment 6 Ryan Kaldari 2014-07-21 21:57:39 UTC 
The issue here is that we're adding a hash to the URL when we launch the editor, and then doing history.back() after it's saved to restore the original URL. The only problem is that redlinks link directly to the editor, so once you're done, going back takes you to the previous article. Linking directly to the editor is the correct behavior (it's the same as is done on desktop). The problem is the  history.back() hack (IMO).
Comment 7 Ryan Kaldari 2014-07-21 23:14:47 UTC 
I think this bug is actually the same as bug 60848 and bug 65041. Bug 60848 was closed by Jon as WONTFIX. Should we reopen it? Bug 65041 is just another specific case of the underlying issue.
Comment 8 Ryan Kaldari 2014-10-06 21:58:39 UTC 
Bug is no longer reproducible due to https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/164131/
