Description Lokal_Profil 2014-10-14 10:17:57 UTC
Intention:
Visiting a Wikidata entity from an IE 11 browser (while logged in)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start IE 11
2a. Make sure you are not logged in to any Wikimedia site
3a. Go to https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4181759
4a. Click any of the fields

2b. Make sure you logged in to any Wikimedia site
3b. Go to https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4181759

Actual Results:  
At point 4a/3b the browser completely freezes up and must be restarted in order to resume browsing.

Visiting non entity/property pages on Wikidata works fine and browsing away from the page at point 3a (but not 3b) also works fine.

Expected Results:  
Normal editing

Reproducible: Always

The original reporter mentioned that Wikidata worked fine on IE 11 "a few days ago" (reported on October 12). Both their test, and mine, were in IE 11 running on Windows 7.

Additionally appending ?debug=true did not reveal anything in the console explaining the crash.
