Description Umherirrender 2010-05-13 20:01:31 UTC 
When a page get protected, while a user edit the same page, the change of that user is lost, because after a submit the "You have not permission" page is shown.

Please give in this case a warning and let the user copy his change. Thanks.

Steps to reproduce:
* UserA edit the existing page PageA
* UserB protected PageA
* UserA click on save
* UserA get the "You have not permission" page

How can a non-admin user protect an existing page ? I tried reproducing your
above steps but I'm not able to protect a page when I logged in as an non-admin
user.

Protecting is only depending on the protect user right, which group this right is assigned is not necessary, but in the most installation this is the sysop group. UserB of my example can be a User in the sysop group.
