Steps to reproduce: 1. Open a page that already contains an external link without a label: [http://example.com]. 2. Try to change that link to [http://example.com anything]. No fair removing the whole link and re-adding it. Results: Yeah, I couldn't figure out how to do that either. (According to the bug titles, bug 51309, bug 53505, and maybe some others address this, but the descriptions don't seem to match the titles very closely.)
Add label Change selection to select all except the last letter type : anything delete last letter not ...
1. Select link. 2. Edit link. 3. Click "Add label". Done?

Not done. There's no "Add label" button (see screenshot).

Steps to reproduce: 1. 1. Open a page that already contains an external link without a label: [http://example.com], such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Whatamidoing_%28WMF%29/sandbox?veaction=edit (scroll down to the ==External links== section). 2. Open the link dialog. I get the 'wrong' dialog in both Safari 6.2 and Firefox 32 on en.wp, mw.org, and beta labs, so it's not just one version. Perhaps it's Mac specific? I've asked Phatom87 (Mozilla Firefox user) for browser and OS information.
I tried this earlier and works for me in Chrome/Win8 and Safari on my Air. (6.2 isn't the most recent Safari version, but I don't think that matters). Can it be some kind of cache issue?
(Also, works fine in both skins.)
Aha, the trick is you're using the toolbar button (or keyboard shortcut) rather than the context menu item. This is a regression. It's loading the link annotation editor rather than the link node editor. Clicking the context menu works just fine. Boo.
Phatom87 says he's been using "the tab that shows up after clicking on the link." He's running Mozilla browser version is 32.0.3 and kde Linux 4.14.1.
