This is happening in Betalabs, Also for a link text which has no match, it should suggest to create a new page which is also missing.

This bug now also follows the same steps as https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66753

The keyboard needs to be get hidden after the first successful link addition in the page to reproduce this issue

Yes, Cannot reproduce it from my end as well.Marking it as fixed and verified

I reproduced it again today following these steps:

1.Open any page with mobile VE
2.Click on Link inspector icon but your cursor should be on a blank line, do not select any text
3.Type in a link target name in the textfield inside link inspector
4.Now tap at the end of the link target name you just typed
5.Press backspace

Observed Result:
The text does not get cleared

A more general form of this issue that has been observed today is: if you just tap again on any text field in mobile when the cursor is already active there, it does not take anymore input from keyboard unless you cancel it and start it all over.
