Hi all. I have a bug with my wiki's front page. I visited my page today, only to see the page blank. I checked the logs and found that nobody had blanked the page. I clicked the edit button, and all the page loaded properly in the editor, however, it would not let me save it.

I went into source mode, where everything seemed to be OK, and selected Apply Changes. The Save Changes button then reappeared, and I clicked on it. The page was restored normally. However, the edit did not appear in Recent Changes nor my Contributions.

I have seen this happen multiple times before, usually on high traffic pages such as front pages of wiki's I admin on, and it has been reported to me by other users. When I fixed the page on my end, the other user reported back saying that it was fixed on their end.

I checked all the browsers I have, and found that it only occurs on Android browsers, and Chrome. The page loaded correctly in FireFox and Internet Explorer.

I am about to send this to Special:Content/bug, and I would like to hear from anyone else who has seen this problem. I've seen it several times in the last month on two different wikis now and on three different pages, so there probably are many people who have seen this happen. My wiki's home page is OK now, as I performed the workaround I mentioned above. Has this happened to you on a wiki you use?
