the following happened when after changing the sitenotice. if it is really a cache problem it would be nice that after editing this would be done by the software like for the iwkipages as well: I had the old sitenotice in the place, but the new text in [[Mediawiki:Sitenotice]]. When I switched from english preference to german preferences - same. When I clicked "save" at [[Mediawiki:Sitenotice]] the sitenotice text changed. I didn't change anything so there is no new revision. I conclude that this is a caching "problem". Try adding "&action=Purge" to the URL once. Then it should work. Caches are also purged once a day, so after a day the problem will be gone automagically.
Caching is a known problem that does not need to be fixed any further (you don't seem to be asking for it to be fixed either, you are just stating that a problem exists and it's easy to fix).
huh? you mean i ve stolen time so i can use it for putting spam into here? of course i'd like to see this fixed, be it by adding "action=purge" on save, or doing purge on save :)
to make not a false impression, only the first paragraph is from me, but the original finding not correctly cited above is from http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer:80686.
I noted that [[MediaWiki:Sitenotice_id]] has not been edited yet on members.wikimedia.ch. Please see the hint at the far top of [[de:MediaWiki_Diskussion:Sitenotice]] for a short explanation. I assume you should try this :-)
