Sorry, that second possibly related bug should be bug 50749

This is now fixed due to the same fixes as bug 51741 (and in Parsoid) - they're still numbered wrongly (which is bug 50474).

Mike Christie at en.wp has reported this happening with notes defined in image captions. Will the fix for this bug solve that when it is deployed or should I file a separate bug?

image captions. Will the fix for this bug solve that when it is deployed or
should I file a separate bug?

This is now deployed; references in image captions sounds like a further bug, sadly.

Ok thanks for the quick reply, now reported as bug 52427

This has started happening again. See [[OpenOffice.Org]] and [[Bristol]] for examples.

Gah.

Also, as seen by editing https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=596381198 you cannot re-use any references that are within an infobox.

Bug 69066 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
