vebug fixes cite problems caused by a bug in VisualEditor.
A complete example:
- Given this original text from this diff (last diff):
In 2010, France received about 48,100 asylum applications—placing it among the top five asylum recipients in the world<sup>[[Asylum in France#cite%20note-7|[7]—]]</sup>and in subsequent years it saw the number of applications increase, ultimately doubling to 100,412 in 2017.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.asylumineurope.org/sites/default/files/report-download/aida_fr_2017update.pdf|title=aida - Asylum Information Database - Country Report: France|last=|first=|date=2017|website=|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=}}</ref>
- Replace
<sup>[[Asylum in France#cite%20note-7|[7]—]]</sup>to<ref>{{Cite journal|title=Asylum Seekers, Violence and Health|...}}</ref>. So it will look like this:In 2010, France received about 48,100 asylum applications—placing it among the top five asylum recipients in the world<ref>{{Cite journal|title=Asylum Seekers, Violence and Health|...}}</ref> and in subsequent years it saw the number of applications increase, ultimately doubling to 100,412 in 2017.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.asylumineurope.org/sites/default/files/report-download/aida_fr_2017update.pdf|title=aida - Asylum Information Database - Country Report: France|last=|first=|date=2017|website=|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=}}</ref>
- With the new text being note #7 from Asylum in France as-of the date of the diff in the France article (August 20).
