Description MZMcBride 2010-04-10 02:57:18 UTC
When I try to blank (remove all page content) from this page, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject%20Stub%20sorting/Stub%20type%20sizes/data?action=edit , it consistently returns a white screen (page with no content at all) upon submit and does not save the edit. Could probably go under the "MediaWiki" or "Wikimedia" product, not really bothered by which.
Comment 1 Roan Kattouw 2010-04-10 10:03:08 UTC
Someone else was able to blank the page since your report, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject%20Stub%20sorting/Stub%20type%20sizes/data?action=history , therefore closing as WORKSFORME. Could be a server-specific bug though, I'll look through any error messages around the time of your report.
Comment 2 Roan Kattouw 2010-04-10 10:13:14 UTC
AFAICT they were out-of-memory errors in the AbuseFilter parser, which makes sense given that it needs to apply filters to a huge diff. The 80M memory limit seems a bit low, though.
Comment 3 MZMcBride 2010-04-10 15:40:48 UTC
Yeah, I've had this issue previously. Admins are generally capable of getting around the AbuseFilter, while it screws up editing for everyone else. Is there a bug related to this? I'm not seeing one off-hand.
