Bug #: 39252
Summary: Text just vanished
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Database
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
I was typing something onto the TALK section for an article.
Somehow, I hit some key by accident, and then everything that I had typed
DISAPPEARED. I cannot find it anywhere, either.
THIS SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO HAPPEN !
THIS IS THE ULTIMATE IN A USER-UNFRIENDLY COMPUTER PROGRAM.
NO PROGRAM SHOULD EVER JUST ERASE TEXT THAT WE HAVE TYPED, AND MAKE IT
DISAPPEAR FOREVER. THERE SHOULD ALWAYS BE SOME BUFFER, SOME BACK-UP FILE, WHERE
THAT TEXT CAN BE FOUND.
ALSO, I NEVER GOT A MESSAGE THAT SAID, "DO YOU REALLY WANT TO ERASE THIS?"
FOR EVERY "PLAN A", THERE SHOULD BE A "PLAN B", AND PLAN B SHOULD BE EASY TO
USE.
BLAME IT ON WINDOWS 7 OR WHATEVER. IN ANY CASE, YOUR SOFTWARE SHOULD OVERCOME
THE FOIBLES OF WINDOWS 7. MAKE YOUR SYSTEM EASY AND RELIABLE FOR HUMAN BEINGS
TO USE.
