           Summary: Showing the same banner twice on
                    Special:NoticeTemplate and not being able to make
                    change to template via the interface itself.
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: any
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: CentralNotice
        AssignedTo: rkald...@wikimedia.org
        ReportedBy: jameso...@gmail.com


The specific example is
http://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:NoticeTemplate/view&template=2010_fr_testing2

It has shown 2 versions of 2010_fr_testing2 for a while when I view
Special:NoticeTemplate and most recently I was attempting to remove
"&{{{target1}}}" from the template through the interface (in the url) but each
time I did so it would not fully remove. Once you pressed submit it would show
the change in the test field but the variable was still listed in the variables
section. When you refreshed the page the text field showed the removed
&{{{target}}} as back. 

I attempted both on my staff account and on User:Jamesofur as well as on 3
browsers (Firefox and IE8 on Windows 7 and Chrome on Linux) without success
before attempting to remove it straight via the Mediawiki page with
http://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Centralnotice-template-2010_fr_testing2&diff=prev&oldid=2156662
. The change did stick with that edit but I have since tried to make other
edits to that template and the same issue occurs (the edit appears to have
happened but when the page is refreshed it did not).

(putting on the fundraising open issues page as well)
