Appears that Twinkle and Friendly have completely broken on en.wp sometime in the last 24+ hrs.

Was doctype recently changed to HTML5?   Someone is mentioning that may be causing the problem - similar to 2009 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28technical%29/Archive_67#Twinkle_stalling
Comment 3 AlexSm 2011-02-24 05:20:38 UTC 
Yes it was changed: "15:39 ... 'Enable $wgHtml5 on all wikis'"

Stop screen scraping!

It's the devils work!
Comment 6 Derk-Jan Hartman 2011-02-24 20:50:51 UTC 
Reverted to Html4 for now. We probably want to set a date for when a new switch is attempted. Advertise the date, warn the scriptwriters, summarize which techniques are likely to break, provide them with a link to a testing environment for their scripts.
Comment 7 Derk-Jan Hartman 2011-05-04 13:04:32 UTC 
Awaiting inevitable recurrence after we execute bug 27478 again, but fixed for now..
Comment 8 Thambaru Wijesekara (තඹරු විජේසේකර) 2013-06-21 12:37:52 UTC 
I'm reopening this to report the same bug which appears in our si.wiki (Sinhala-Sri Lanka)
We've added Twinkle to our common files, but now it isn't working. As same as user:7 said, it get stuck at "Data Loading.."
It worked well before few months. But now, something went wrong.
Comment 9 Andre Klapper 2013-06-24 03:53:57 UTC 
Thambaru: I'm pretty sure it's not the same reason in the code, so I'm closing this ticket again. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Twinkle#Bugs_and_feature_requests for where to file Twinkle bugs. If it is clear (means: reasons) that this is a bug in MediaWiki code or the Wikimedia server configuration, please file a new ticket in bugzilla.wikimedia.org. Thanks.
