→‎Editing Complaint: Both of the above comments surprise me, and the software should not lose information as you described. The browser being used may have an effect on this also.
Line 208: Line 208:  
Someone started a debate page without posting any comments, so I decided to start the discussion. I spent about half an hour writing the post, clicked on save, and was redirected to a page informing me that I didn't have permission to edit it (Probably because it was the first post). And I was unable to go back and copy/paste what I'd written to post it later. Can someone please fix this so that if you click on a page to edit that you can't edit, it tells you straight away and doesn't simply waste your time. Thanks. - JamesCA, 31 July 2011

:And something similar. I recently tried to edit a page because some of the information was out of date, and did not find out until after I tried to save it, that it was locked for only administrators to edit. - [[User:JamesCA|JamesCA]] 19:02, 29 August 2011 (EDT)

::I thought that locked pages (which I think are a very small percentage of entries here) announced themselves as such when there is an attempt to edit them.  The browser should not discard information regardless.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 19:11, 29 August 2011 (EDT)
