wiki edit timeout?
Posted: Mon Nov 25, 2024 3:13 pm
Hi,
I wanted to improve the MSI/MSI-X information and provide a brand new page for the MSI address/data pairs. I think the changes to PCI page are under moderation now, but my new MSI Register format page is likely gone. The net result of 1 hour contribution is exactly binary zero.
This likely happened due to the fact that I never saved that new page (to make it nice) but somehow there is a timeout which kicks users out of wiki edit. In my case, after about an hour I wanted to switch to the "source code view" and this is how I lost all my work. Note that I was working on that *whole time* and I was active in the visual editor. I think this is really not acceptable and it might discourage people from doing any further contributions.
Please provide me some hints how to edit the wiki without causing this issue.
