This occurred when I tried to sign a section on the RS noticeboard: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard
Steps taken:
Result:
Apparent edit conflict with yourself like the example below
| Status | Subtype | Assigned | Task | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Open | None | T72163 Edit conflicts (tracking) | |||
| Invalid | None | T193862 Edit conflicts with signatures |
@Username_Needed: Do you plan to work on this (just making sure, as you set yourself as assignee)?
Also, links are welcome. I'll add https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard to the task description. :)
This looks like you managed to double-click the publish button, so you edit conflicted with yourself (with your pre-save "~~~~" not matching the post-save expansion; had they matched it'd have just silently not published a second edit). Perhaps we could compare post-PST expansion wikitext for conflicts? But I think that this is Invalid.
@Username_Needed: Could it be that you double-clicked the Publish button? Is the problem reproducible?
The problem hasn't happened again with regular signatures yet. It is possible that I double-clicked the publish button.
