(Related: BugID 50165) This seems to be related to the above bug which was marked as fixed, though it seems the same issue seems to be popping up again. If an article contains multiple images that are "stacked" the visual editor seems to misintrepret these as a large uneditable object at times. Examples: - https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Lung&oldid=563507889&veaction=edit (First three images) - https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gallstone&oldid=563521470&veaction=edit (Images under the infobox) At the same time, it seems that the visual editor creates inconsistent output for identical revisions. The below revisions are (partial) copies of the [[Lung]] page. - https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Excirial/Playground/Content&oldid=563510524 - https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Excirial/Playground/Content&oldid=563509075 The first revision above was the initial attempt. It seems that (Partially) copying the Lung page allowed the user to edit the page. The second was created by removing sections from the page until the diff was identical to the first page. This version is identical to the first (Diff: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3AExcirial%2FPlayground%2FContent&diff=563510524&oldid=563509075), yet the images in this revision are loaded incorrectly.
So when this happens, it's due to Parsoid wrapping the images as Placeholders, IIRC. The individual links are now all working (we re-flushed the cache this afternoon), but that it keeps coming back means there's clearly an underlying issue which we've not fixed. Gabriel, any ideas what might be causing this? (See also bug 50165.)
We wrap images as placeholders currently if those images don't exist. See bug 48900.
