Description Chris McKenna 2013-08-08 09:47:12 UTC 
en.wp user Ruud Koot reports that occasionally he gets " weird, random and unexplainable corruptions of wikitext on save" when using the VisualEditor.

The only example he gives is "e.g., a __NOTOC__ being replaced with a copy of the categories"

Bug 48231 might have something to do with this, but I confess to not understanding all the technical language there.

Can you point me to his bug report (was this on the feedback page)?  It would be easier to debug with a diff if you have easy access to one.
Comment 2 ssastry 2013-08-09 22:09:49 UTC 
Never mind.  I found it here.  https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback&diff=prev&oldid=567395325 .. No diffs there.  

Looks like his experiments here are at least 3 weeks old.  https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Ruud_Koot/Computer_science/Lambda_calculus&action=history

Lot of things have been fixed in the last couple weeks including instances of wikitext getting duplicated.  But 48231 is not related to this.  I am going to close this ticket for now.  We can open new bugs against specific bad diffs when we encounter them.

Thanks for your diligent work in reporting bugs!
