Bug ID: 51134
Summary: VisualEditor: Intermittently unable to open page
settings after deleting and then adding a stub
template

English Wikipedia user PamD reports that sometimes after replacing one stub
template with another she is unable to open the page settings dialog unless she
saves and then reedits the page.
I have done a small amount of testing and can confirm that the following steps
will reproduce the bug, but only intermittently:
1. Open a page in VE that has one or more stub templates (e.g. any article in
[[Category:England stubs]])
2. Delete the/one stub template by selecting it and then pressing the delete
key
3. Launch the transclusion tool from the toolbar
4. Enter a different stub template (e.g. Wales-stub), select it from the list
and then click "Add template"
5. Add the template to the page by clicking the "Apply changes" button. In my
testing I never entered any parameters or options, PamD has not specified
whether she does or not.
6. Click the "page settings" button on the tool bar.
If the dialog opens, choose a different article and try again. In my testing it
failed to open just under 50% of the time, PamD implies it happens less
frequently to her but doesn't specify.
