Finishing unsigned post with visual tool clashes with AnomieBOT

When the tool is used to finish an unsinged post by an editor, Anomie's bot AnomieBOT clashes with it and senses it needs correction. I am not sure which one is doing it incorrectly.

Special:Diff/1257289856 was done using the tool. AnomieBOT decided it needed to correct it:Special:Diff/1257297114 Graywalls (talk) 14:47, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The template {{Unsigned}} is supposed to be substituted. If someone doesn't do so, AnomieBOT comes along to do it. See also Help:VisualEditor#Substituting templates. Anomie 15:49, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The one in question was inserted using the visual editor bar on the top: Insert, Insert a template, unsigned. I filled in the user name and time in the relevant boxes. Graywalls (talk) 15:58, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Difficulty discarding changes on desktop

User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:132.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/132.0

There should be an easily accessible "Discard Changes" button on the visual editor.

Ability for toolbar to move

User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:130.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/130.0

It would be useful if the toolbar were movable down the screen especially for longer articles.
