@Tomybrz: Thanks for reporting this and welcome to Phabricator. As you set the priority of this task to 'high', do you plan to work on fixing this task yourself? If yes, please set yourself as the task assignee.

I assume the first screenshot is from https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikip%C3%A9dia:Vandalisme_en_cours . (In general, clear steps to reproduce are welcome.)

Thanks!

Steps:

  1. I go to https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sp%C3%A9cial:Pr%C3%A9f%C3%A9rences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures
  2. I enable "Nouveau mode de wikitexte"
  3. I save my changes
  4. I go to https://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikip%C3%A9dia:Vandalisme_en_cours&veaction=editsource&debug=true
  5. The page loads without any problems here.

If these steps are not the steps that you performed, please provide your steps.

Also, your screenshot shows things like "Plus" or "C" in the tab list. I do not see those elements here. Please try with safemode to make sure that the problem is not created by gadgets or personal user scripts. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Locating_broken_scripts for more information. Thanks!
