            Bug ID: 57264
           Summary: self-conflict when editing huge pages
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Page editing
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---

I have a false self-conflict most of the time when I do some edits on huge
pages. E.g. try to edit
:de:Wikipedia_Diskussion:WikiProjekt_Österreichische_Denkmallisten
(https://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_Diskussion:WikiProjekt_Österreichische_Denkmallisten)
400 kB.

Nevertheless the page changed is stored and a new version created. So no action
to take from the user perspective.
The diff shown in the conflict is just the signature, which is expanded in the
stored version, while it is still ~~~~ in 'my version'.

Similar: Sometimes when entering a new section in the file mentioned above, the
new section gets inserted twice (with a single save I'm quite sure).

If the page gets even huger, and the rendering fails to return within time
limits, I get an 'Our servers are currently experiencing a technical problem.'
Request: POST
http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:WikiProjekt_%C3%96sterreichische_Denkmallisten/Fehlerlisten_(alt)/Nieder%C3%B6sterreich/2013_offen&action=submit,
from 208.80.152.82 via sq78.wikimedia.org (squid/2.7.STABLE9) to 10.2.2.1
(10.2.2.1)
Error: ERR_READ_TIMEOUT, errno [No Error] at Tue, 19 Nov 2013 18:04:49 GMT 

To be clear: I prefer the page being saved and getting a timeout while the new
content is rendered as compared to a situation where I cannot save the page at
all.

maybe see #26821

version: 1.23wmf3 (not in the version list),
it is the normal edit, not related to VE.
