Thanks. The two examples are a bit different. In the first it's about two different sections: were you section-editing just the first of the two? Probably originally you were, but then had an edit conflict with the 19:59 comment, and ended up saving the full text of the page after the 20:03 comment? If you re-did a section edit and removed something on another section, this would be a bug (it sometimes happened in the past). In the second, it's just a normal double edit conflict. I'm not sure how smart the edit conflict detection is supposed to be here, maybe it could get smarter (and this would be a feature request); surely it's better to check the diff before saving after a conflict, as usual. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
