Bug ID: 57364
Summary: VisualEditor:References resulting from repeated
citation cannot be edited in the VE mode after
changing the ref name from :0
Product: VisualEditor
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Editing Tools
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
Steps to reproduce:
1.Click on the Edit mode
2.Add a reference
3.Add the same reference 5 times in that page
4.Save the page
5.Go to Edit Source
Observed Result:
I think, due to repeated citation of the same reference with no defined name ,a
name with value (:0) is added to the <ref> tags for all the references that is
using the same reference
But, if user intends to change the name of the original reference to a more
meaningful name for future reference purpose he might do the following steps
6. Change the name value from ":0" to "bbc" for the first references
7.Close the editor
8.Click on Edit now.
9.Hover over other references which were using same references
Observed Result:
A message shows up this reference cannot be edited in the VE ,can only be
edited in edit source mode.
Can this message be more precise to point where the problem is?For example in
the read mode it says "Invalid <ref> tag; no text was provided for refs named
:0"
