Is this a…:
Standard bug Steps to reproduce this issue:
Usernames are once again appearing as numbers only after a certain number of edits and saves and can be fixed by a refresh of the page. I remember this used to be a bug but was fixed, seems like it’s back again. Tested under a scriptless environment.
Thank you for your input. I have been able to reproduce it once only script-less, so we could role out scripts here I suppose. These un-clickable numbers are external IDs, 1950995236, for instance, is assigned to matching_feed (most commonly seen pseudo-user in edits’ history).
The bottom line is that, this is of no use to editors who want to check profiles being displayed as un-clickable numbers. I will log an internal ticket to further investigate it.
Unfortunately there are no updates on this bug yet. I have found new examples and added them to the internal ticket, so hopefully we can hear back from the team soon. I will keep you posted.
Ahh shucks my bad must have removed it on muscle memory as the MC (yes it’s a Map Comment not Problem) is no longer relevant. I am quite a stickler for having a clean map
I’ll provide more other examples that I come across.
