Bug ID: 51999
Summary: VisualEditor: Saving fails silently for some blocked
users
Product: VisualEditor
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
A user on en.wp has reported the following:
"Editing anonymously from my school computers is blocked, and for fun I tried
editing a page using VE. It lets me edit the page fully, ''until'' I try to
click the save page button. No matter how many times I click it it doesn't
save, but there's no notification telling me why it doesn't save. A bit weird
really"
I blocked my legitimate alternate user and then tried to edit a page. The
editor loaded fine but when I clicked to save the edit I saw the message:
"Error loading data from server: Unsuccessful request: You have been blocked
from editing."
I am on a shared connection so I do not want to do any testing of ipblocks,
etc.
