Description:
Attempts to access or save any page with large numbers of media links to ogg
files fail.

[[Wikipedia:sound/list]] is the largest so far, and I have not been able to
access, edit, or save it for almost two weeks (every attempt fails)

On Brion's advice, I pruned down the table from that page, and tried to save it
as a simple list (see http://udel.edu/~markpell/filter.txt for the wikitext).
This too failed.

Later, I attempted to add the following to the article on [[Ludwig van
Beethoven]]. It contains exactly 15 media links, and it too fails most of the time:

I asked in MediaWiki-General. Jamesday had previously looked into it after I asked him to:

23:14] <Jamesday_> Raul, please file a bug report using that as an example - I
can't save it to the sandbox either.
[23:14] <Jamesday_> seems not to get to the master database server.
[23:19] <Raul654> I have 3 seperate ones I could file
[23:19] <Raul654> you want me to attach all 3?
[23:19] <Jamesday_> yes, any which show it - seems to be some useful common
factor there - only once, for two tries, did I se your or my tries hitting the
master server to actually make the save
[23:20] <Jamesday_> so somehing seems to be stopping them before they get that far.
[23:20] <Raul654> the ones I just made to Beethoven, they saved
[23:20] <Raul654> but timed out
[23:20] <Raul654> (timed out all three times, but on the third time, the save
went through as well)
[23:25] <Jamesday_> That suggests that the third one got to the database server

• didn't show up on my snapshots but that's not too surprising.
