@Coren, @Tpt, any idea what's going on here? Can report on Phab if needed.

Hi! Are you talking about the "Pages" option in the "Insert" menu? If yes, could you please give us a link to the affected page and the name and version of your web browser?

Well, when I try to add page to my sandbox, I still get the grey button FWIW. (I'm on Safari right now.)

hmm, on firefox and ie, i'm showing gray out of all VE functions, and no menus dropping down

Wikisource only?

ok, the insert button is now grayed out for me. on chrome. i will resume wikitext editing until further notice.

i see the gray out "save changes" button on commons, and english wikipedia. drop downs not enabled, but help ? over to [[]] works

the drop down menus first appear enabled black, then when you clock on page they turn gray unenabled.

Possibly due to some upstream work we did on disable the insert button when no changes have been made. Will have a look.
