Originally reported by Mark Mandel here: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52165#c12 CONTEXT: I use the mobile site, '''betatest version''', on a Samsung Galaxy S3 smartphone (model SCH-I535, Android v. 4.4.2). When I go to my user page via the menu at the top left (bottom option, square smiley-face) I get the small RECENT ACTIVITY page, which has at the bottom a link '''Visit user page''' and a button ''[speech balloons icon]'' '''Talk to Thnidu''' Both of those take me where they say they will. So far, so good. BUG: The user page itself also has a speech balloons icon just under the title, along with the pencil and star icons ("edit" and "watchlist"). When I tap that I get X Talk Add discussion There are no conversations about this page which is patently false. If I tap "Read as wiki page" at the bottom, I get '''User talk:User:Thnidu''' Return to the user page of "User:Thnidu". This page doesn't exist. Why not be bold and create it? Accessing the normal website with my laptop, I find no comparable problem. ANALYSIS: Of course, my user talk page is '''User talk:Thnidu'''. Evidently the mobile beta speech balloons icon, when tapped on a user page, ''prefixes'' "User talk:" to the complete name of the user page instead of ''replacing'' "User" with "User talk".
