Wargo added a comment to T363485: InvalidArgumentException: $text must be a string.

This is related with the first section.
Maybe some delays, timeouts in getting version from some external software (CirrusSearch?).

matmarex added a comment to T326060: Special:MediaStatistics doesn't have anchor tags for its headings.

@matmarex how can I populate my local database with existing data to test out if my fix is working or not?

Pols12 added a comment to T358553: Have numbers next to images on Special:ListFiles.

Page number is the only index for pages in books; whereas in the file list, each file is indexed per its file name. You may also refer to a given file thanks to its date.
To describe a use case, a story is often better; e.g. “While reviewing all files from a specific user opening them in new browser tabs, I would like them to be numbered, so I can easier remember the last file I have open.”
You can’t say “sometimes it is useful to have numbers”, we need to explicit “sometimes” with a precise story.

Umherirrender added a comment to T361916: Add natural sort order to Special:AllPages.

Using natsort for the result shown on Special:Allpages could be wrong, when there are more items to shown and the first page ends on n2 and the next page starts with n11.

Umherirrender added a comment to T354092: Links from Lua modules not listed in [[Special:WhatLinksHere]] or [[Special:WantedPages]].

When visiting the page in the module namespace the lua source code is shown, but not parsed. The links there are not registered to show on [[Special:WhatLinksHere]]. But on the page where the module is used, the required modules are registered as template and shown on [[Special:WhatLinksHere]].
