If you're doing an edit on the edit conflict page, you're editing not a section but the entire article. While editing one more edit conflict can happen with another user editing only a section. Sometimes it happens that MediaWiki don't recognize an edit conflicts. If so, than it could happen that the (meanwhile saved) edits from the other user could be overwritten with the old version of page in the edit conflict page and the edits getting lost. So it happens today: http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Auskunft&diff=next&oldid=89518222 Previous I had three edit conflicts so that I was editing on the edit conflict page. Meanwhile a user had saved another comment and so he was creating my fourth edit conflict. But MediaWiki didn't recognize this. So as I was saving my new edited edit conflict page, and the edit of the other user (in another section) gets lost. This problem could be solved by two solutions: 1. If the edit conflict page shows only the relevant sections or 2. If edit conflicts would be solved more reliable (is there a bug report for unresolved edit conflicts?). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
