Signing in From "New Section" On A Village Pump and Returning Afterwards Goes To "Edit" On The Villa
I can't really put it any better than the title. This bug occurs for me on WP:Village pump (technical) and WP:Village pump (miscellaneous) under both Firefox and Chromium on Arch Linux. --Gizmoguy (talk) 23:43, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
- Do you mean it goes to a full page edit and not to add a new section? It does the latter for me in Firefox with the url http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28technical%29&action=edit§ion=new. My steps: Log out, click "New section", click "Log in" (without showing preview or changes), sign in, click "Return to Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)". Are you doing the same steps or talking about something else? If you mean that something you had written in the edit box is not restored after you click "Return to Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)" then it's not supposed to be restored. Try your browser back button for that, or use another tab to log in. PrimeHunter (talk) 00:32, 19 December 2012 (UTC)

Famous quotes containing the words section, village, pump, returning and/or edit:
“Every man has been brought up with the idea that decent women don’t pop in and out of bed; he has always been told by his mother that “nice girls don’t.” He finds, of course, when he gets older that this may be untrue—but only in a certain section of society.”
—Barbara Cartland (b. 1901)
“This is the village where the funeral
Stilted its dusty march over deep ruts
Up the hillside covered with queen’s lace
To the patch of weeds known finally to all.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
“God primes the pump of obligation.”
—A.P. Martinich (b. 1946)
“The hotel was once where things coalesced, where you could meet both townspeople and travelers. Not so in a motel. No matter how you build it, the motel remains the haunt of the quick and dirty, where the only locals are Chamber of Commerce boys every fourth Thursday. Who ever heard the returning traveler exclaim over one of the great motels of the world he stayed in? Motels can be big, but never grand.”
—William Least Heat Moon [William Trogdon] (b. 1939)
“To a philosopher all news, as it is called, is gossip, and they who edit it and read it are old women over their tea.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
