Save page button
I edited a page (Argentina), and then clicked the Save Page button at the bottom of the editor. I waited for more than 3 minutes and the site still hadn't processed it. I ended up clicking the Article tab at the top of the page, and my changes were there. Question: why is there a Save Page option, when you only have to click the Article and Edit tabs at the top of the screen? Lcturner 09:29, 20 December 2007 (MST)

I think what happened is that you hit save and we had a hiccup that caused the wait. Then by hitting the other buttons it got you out of the suspend or wait state. Normally, if you just hit the Article tab or the Edit tab it will not save your changes. You do have to hit save to save the changes. Send us a bug report if you continue to have problems like this with save. Jimgreene 12:03, 20 December 2007 (MST)

Not useful
It takes me longer to figure out how to fix the broken markup that the FCK Editor creates sometimes than just learn the markup myself. I have disabled the Rich Editor from the Misc tab on my preferences. I routinely go through articles and fix broken line breaks, indenting and similar problems that the FCK Editor seems to have broken.

I also see a lot of edits that only contain '-{#######...}-. I wonder if these are from the FCK Editor opening and saving a page with no other changes.
