How long are you two taking to edit? If you spend 20+ minutes making changes, and if the other guy makes his own change past that 20 minute mark but before you finish, your changes will overwrite his.
Yeah, I've accidentally undone another person's edits when taking a long time making my own before.
Usually not that long. I don't tend to do too many edits at once.
And I don't think we're editing at the same time.
Even this is better than my RL signature.
Could be that one of you is working with an offline copy of the article, which is something we discourage.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"
I'm not working with a offline copy.
It isn't happening straight away, the edits last of a while, then later I notice they've been undone.
Even this is better than my RL signature.
Me and nemesisofthedawn are both editing the Hello Charlotte/Characters page, but what's happening is one of us adds/changes something, but it get's deleted/changed back, and according the the history page the other one has done so (which I haven't, and it's safe to assume nemesisofthedawn also isn't reversing any changes). I've restored the page back to before the deletion/change but it's still a major worry.
I don't know what's causing this, so I'm asking for help.
(I was going to index the page when I noticed the problem, and think it should be dealt with before it's indexed, because if more people come along it might make things worse).
