"Review your changes" shows wrong diff after switching to new wikitext editor
Closed, ResolvedPublic1 Estimated Story Points

Description

Verbatim:
When I made some changes to a citation template in VisualEditor, then switched to source editing and changed the citation further, then the "Review your changes" button doesn't show my latest source changes -- it only shows VisualEditor changes.
