            Bug ID: 52805
           Summary: Unregistered users (anons) are unable to edit posts
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: master
          Hardware: All
               URL: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Extension_talk:L

                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: LiquidThreads

On mediawiki.org page, unregistered users can't edit LQT posts. It doesn't
matter if the message was originally posted by the same user or not.

When editing a post, the edit form is displayed as normal. But when saving the
edit, the "progress" icon appears and nothing more happens.

Inspecting what's going on in the AJAX calls, I can see the edit request is
posted, but the server response is:

{"servedby":"mw1202","error":{"code":"editconflict","info":"Edit conflict
detected"}}

If I edit the post as a logged in user, the same info is sent to the API when
saving the edit, except the "token" which is different, so I can't see how it's
detecting edit conflicts.

I'm going to open another bug requesting a better handling of those error
responses from the server, since the "Edit conflict detected" message isn't
displayed anywhere.
