Steps to reproduce: 1. Open VE on a sandbox 2. In a different window, delete the sandbox 3. In the VE window, change the text in the sandbox and save the page Expected results: Something similar to the SE, which asks " User xxx (talk) deleted this article after you started editing it, with a reason of: blah Please confirm that you really want to recreate this article." with a checkbox Actual results: Backend error message is displayed, and there is no option to ignore this error.
The response is now: | Error: The page has been deleted since you fetched its timestamp I guess we should inherit this message, however. Changing to an enhancement.
I currently get this error in Parsoid: TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of null at Object.result.parse (eval at <anonymous> (/var/www/MediaWiki/Git/extensions/VisualEditor/parsoid/lib/mediawiki.tokenizer.peg.js:97:44), <anonymous>:18347:34) at PegTokenizer.tokenizeAsync (/var/www/MediaWiki/Git/extensions/VisualEditor/parsoid/lib/mediawiki.tokenizer.peg.js:135:25) at PegTokenizer._processText (/var/www/MediaWiki/Git/extensions/VisualEditor/parsoid/lib/mediawiki.tokenizer.peg.js:124:8) at PegTokenizer.process (/var/www/MediaWiki/Git/extensions/VisualEditor/parsoid/lib/mediawiki.tokenizer.peg.js:38:7) at ParserPipeline.process (/var/www/MediaWiki/Git/extensions/VisualEditor/parsoid/lib/mediawiki.parser.js:439:21) at ParserPipeline.processToplevelDoc (/var/www/MediaWiki/Git/extensions/VisualEditor/parsoid/lib/mediawiki.parser.js:455:21) at SSP.parseOriginalSource (/var/www/MediaWiki/Git/extensions/VisualEditor/parsoid/lib/mediawiki.SelectiveSerializer.js:143:17) at TemplateRequest.<anonymous> (/var/www/MediaWiki/Git/extensions/VisualEditor/parsoid/lib/mediawiki.Util.js:1266:3) at TemplateRequest.g (events.js:180:16) at Object.processSome [as _onImmediate] (/var/www/MediaWiki/Git/extensions/VisualEditor/parsoid/lib/mediawiki.ApiRequest.js:123:17) worker 11363 died (1), restarting.
