Someone just reported this on Telegram too, also for Tamil. It seems it happens when using the input tools in ULS. It's not necessarily only the first character, it sometimes incorrectly thinks that no text has been entered at all, or sometimes saves multiple characters but not all of them. It affects Special:NewLexeme, lemmas, glosses and form representations. To reproduce: - Go to https://test.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:NewLexeme?lexeme-language=Q255&lemma-language=ta&lexicalcategory=Q212131 - Focus the lemma field - Click the keyboard icon, select "..." and then pick Tamil - Choose the first option and save the settings {F36994033} - Type "tata" in the lemma field (which should produce "டட") and press enter Expected behaviour: A lexeme is created with "டட" as the lemma Actual behaviour: The lemma field is cleared and the form complains that the lemma can't be empty. Before and after pressing enter: {F36994027, layout=inline} {F36994029, layout=inline} - Now type "tata ta" (which should produce "டட ட") in the lemma field and press enter again Expected behaviour: A lexeme is created with "டட ட" as the lemma Actual behaviour: A lexeme is created with "டட" as the lemma: https://test.wikidata.org/wiki/Lexeme:L2262 Some workarounds are to press space at the end or to copy and paste the text.
