Verified in test2 and production(en.wikipedia.org)

  • inserting a link with a menu option - OK
  • editing an existing link wiht a menu option - OK
  • insert a link with the shortcut - Ctrl+K - the link inspector opens and closes momentarily

IE11: Using a shortcut Ctrl+K to insert a link consistently gives the following message twice :

DOM7009: Unable to decode image at URL: 'data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODdhAQABAADcACwAAAAAAQABAAA'. File: gif;base64,R0lGODdhAQABAADcACwAAAAAAQABAAA

The previous comment was filed as a separate bug: 73154

Besides bug 73154 - the fix re-verified in betalbs/test2/en wiki.
