Hellooooo?

This should actually be the second post in this thread — the first isn't showing up at all.

And my edits aren't taking properly.

Okay, OP, could you repost whatever you posted? Probably the same issue as has just come up in Ask The Tropers, of course.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

Huh.

OK, posts taking again now.

And yes, it's the same issue.

Had the same thing happen on Defective Detective while editing the TV Monk entry (sever to severe). Blank page, all the information available when I hit edit. Fixed with a null edit.

And scared the crap out of me because I know blanking a page is a huge don't do.

Could this be the same issue that's causing some forum posts to not go through? Because I tried posting a little while ago, and it just dent me to the first post.

Possibly. I mentioned that in the other topic.

This problem also showed up on Comes Great Responsibility. It also stripped all the double backslashes (\\\\) down to a single backslash; I'm currently going through and manually fixing them.

EDIT: And the fix went through and the page is still visible.

I just tried to edit a page and it didn't go through, twice.

The same thing seems to have happened to Foreign Remake after an edit by St Fan on June 7th. Would this be fixed by a null edit?

Yes, but you need to save the page.

Well, this is still a thing that's happening. Seems rare, though
