Description Umherirrender 2010-05-13 20:19:46 UTC
When a page is deleted, while a user edit the same page, the user get a recreate warning after submit the save. But when that user is not allow to create a page in that namespace or the page get a create-protection, the change is lost.

Please add a warning, so the user can copy his change. Thanks.

Steps to reproduce:
* UserA edit the existing PageA
* UserB deleted PageA
* UserA click save
* UserA get the "You have not permission" page, because the right "createpage"/"createtalk" is missing or the page get create-protection

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

Deleting is only depending on the delete 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.
