Bug ID: 64375
Summary: VisualEditor: "Unknown error" corrupts page upon
saving, but saving again fixes the problems it created
Product: VisualEditor
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]

Actual Results:
TeamGale added some citations and then saved the page. She received an
"unknown error" and assumed that the page did not get saved. So she saved the
page again. Upon checking the history, she found that both attempts to save
the page had resulted in a new version:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sakis_Rouvas&diff=605148987&oldid=605133988
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sakis_Rouvas&diff=605149076&oldid=605148987
However, the first diff removed the end of the page, including the reference
secyion, external links, navboxes, succession boxes, categories, and more.
These were automagically restored when she saved the second time.
Reproducible: Didn't try
TeamGale usually edits with Firefox 28 on Windows 8.
