Description Tyler Romeo 2013-07-28 05:13:06 UTC
Unlike the standard source editing windows, VE doesn't confirm closing the page if you have made changes, making it very easy to accidentally close a tab and lose all of your edits.
Comment 1 James Forrester 2014-01-22 19:01:50 UTC
I'm going to close this as WORKSFORME because it does (and always has), and the bug report gives no details of how to reproduce. Please re-open if you have steps to reproduce.

Sorry for very slow triage.

For the record: going to
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mykola_Labovskyy?veaction=edit
and typing anithing, and then closing the browser tab causes the warning "Are you sure you want to go back to view mode without saving first?"
Comment 3 Tyler Romeo 2014-01-22 23:52:17 UTC
Yeah I can confirm as well. Not sure when it started working again.
