It just happened again. - I specifically checked to be sure the save icon went from red to gray. - Then I opened the tiddler and copied it to the clipboard. - Then I went to the server and issued 'sudo reboot'.
The wiki came up with a multiple versions old edition of that tiddler. I opened the tiddler and pasted in my clipboard to restore. What's happening here? I really need my wiki not to forget edits!
