Description Aphaia 2007-05-19 04:10:01 UTC

When a section of http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Wikiquote:Village_pump is edited and saved, another existing section is lost (seems the section placed just above the edited one). Eventually the edited section is duplicated.

It seems to have occured on May 18 at first:
http://en.wikiquote.org/w/index.php?title=Wikiquote:Village_pump&diff=next&oldid=487444

And repeated at least twice:
http://en.wikiquote.org/w/index.php?title=Wikiquote:Village_pump&diff=prev&oldid=490029
http://en.wikiquote.org/w/index.php?title=Wikiquote%3AVillage_pump&diff=490032&oldid=490030

On 8 March 2011 I completely garbled http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Great_Silkie_of_Sule_Skerry
by trying to edit. The section heading ==Adaptations== appeared twice after I saved the edit page. I returned to insert material in the ==Lyrics== section, and most of it disappeared while parts showed up in other sections. I apologize for not writing a more coherent description, but confusion reigns supreme here!
