Created attachment 15103 [details] lost whitespaces in the last line. Whitespaces between last words of the page disappear sometimes. I have noticed the issue first in my own mediawiki's but today eventually have seen it online on Wikipedia. This is the article for example: http://hy.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D5%87%D5%A1%D5%BC%D5%AC_%D4%B9%D5%A5%D5%B8%D5%A4%D5%B8%D6%80_%D4%B1%D5%B6%D6%80%D5%AB_%D5%A4%D5%A8_%D4%BF%D5%B8%D5%BD%D5%BF%D5%A5%D6%80 If one moves Categories to the upper part of the text, the problem disappears. I have noticed it since, I guess, 17th version of mediawiki. Thank you
Thanks for taking the time to report this! Confirming that the text should be Մահացել է 1879 թվականի մայիսի 7-ին, մենակ և կարիքավոր վիճակում։ but the last space is missing, using Firefox 28 on Fedora 20.
Can still be seen on https://hy.wikipedia.org/wiki/Շառլ_Թեոդոր_Անրի_դը_Կոստեր Մահացել է 1879 թվականի մայիսի 7-ին, մենակ և կարիքավոր վիճակում։ can be seen in the wikitext when editing the page. But the HTML source of the page says: <p>Մահացել է 1879 թվականի մայիսի 7-ին, մենակ ևկարիքավորվիճակում։</p> I can also confirm that removing this section fixes the problem: {{DEFAULTSORT:դը Կոստեր, Շառլ}} [[Կատեգորիա:Բելգիացի գրողներ]] [[Կատեգորիա:1827 ծնունդներ]] [[Կատեգորիա:Օգոստոսի 20 ծնունդներ]] [[Կատեգորիա:1879 մահեր]] [[Կատեգորիա:Մայիսի 7 մահեր]]
Gabriel, James: As this seems to be Parser territory, any idea who could investigate here? See summary and testcase in comment 2.
Adding Subbu as parser/Parsoid leader.
Subbu: Any idea?
Confirmed that this is PHP parser only. http://parsoid-lb.eqiad.wikimedia.org/hywiki/%D5%87%D5%A1%D5%BC%D5%AC_%D5%A4%D5%A8_%D4%BF%D5%B8%D5%BD%D5%BF%D5%A5%D6%80?oldid=1468063 shows the right output from Parsoid. This bug smells a bit like a bad regexp because of the presence of some characters. Scott has traditionally poked around the PHP parser but he is currently occupied with PDF migration. We are currently stretched a bit thin, but we'll reassign to one of us if this is still not addressed in next 3 weeks (we have our quarterly review coming up). But, dont want to prematurely assign it to one of us if someone else can investigate.
(In reply to ssastry from comment #6) > we'll reassign to one of us if this is still not addressed in next 3 weeks 4 weeks are over. ssastry?
I can probably take a look at this, but it's not high priority. Can someone reproduce this on enwiki? It would make writing a test case much easier if so. (As a first step, copy-and-pasting the wikitext from hywiki to a sandbox on enwiki and looking at the render would let us know if the bug relates to a hywiki setting (ie, link prefix or link suffix).)
I've made English only text, to check if this has something to do with page content language. This doesn't reproduce on en:WP (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Xelgen/sandbox) This also doesn't reproduce on en:WP when you switch to Armenian UI language. Same time issue is being observed on hy:WP with English UI language. (http://hy.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D5%84%D5%A1%D5%BD%D5%B6%D5%A1%D5%AF%D5%AB%D6%81:Xelgen/LastWhitespace) But I doubt it's solely WMF configuration issues, as in first comment report mentioned he observed this on his own MediaWiki installation. For example: http://chtesutyun.arnet.am/index.php/%D5%84%D5%A1%D5%BD%D5%B6%D5%A1%D5%AF%D5%AB%D6%81:Xelgen http://grapaharan.org/index.php?title=%D5%84%D5%A1%D5%BD%D5%B6%D5%A1%D5%AF%D5%AB%D6%81:Xelgen/LastWhitespace
