BUG MIGRATED FROM SOURCEFORGE http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=977994&group_id=34373&atid=411192 Originally submitted by Robert Dodier (robert_dodier) 2004-06-23 08:36 Hello, I've seen this twice on Wikipedia:Votes for deletion: If a section (denoted by equals signs) is edited by clicking the link that says "[edit]" at the right-hand margin (i.e., not editing whole page), when the section is saved, the saved text clobbers some other section at random. Here are two examples: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Wikipedia:Votes_for_deletion&diff=4231218&oldid=4230738 http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Wikipedia:Votes_for_deletion&diff=4029439&oldid=4029405 It seems like a pretty serious bug to me; its presence pretty much obviates the usefulness of the per-section editing scheme. Thank you very much for your attention to this issue. I appreciate your help very much! Robert Dodier
Hi, after looking at your example, I can confirm that this bug is the same as bug 56, for which I have submitted a patch. Thanks. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 56 ***
