Janesh, are you still running into this on current MediaWiki trunk?
Comment 2 Erik Moeller 2012-09-24 19:18:22 UTC
I agree that an "Undo" option would be ideal (we don't need a pre-discard confirm if we offer a friendly "Your draft has been discarded - undo" notification later). This is a low priority enhancement though as we're talking about ephemeral content anyway.
Comment 3 Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) 2013-10-08 05:15:24 UTC
I'm not sure adding an undo button is really possible. Once you hit discard, it's gone. It would be much easier to just add a confirmation button.
