Template:Google bug

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Your edit has been hit with a bug!
Hello, thanks for your recent contributions to [[{{{1}}}]]. Unfortunately, some text has been lost from the article through your edit. This is not your fault, but a known bug of your browser setup. With certain versions of Microsoft Windows with Firefox together with the Google Toolbar, the end of a very long article may be cut off before you save. Please be careful when you edit long articles and, in the short term, edit just a section at a time. It also seems that the bug is fixed if you use the newest versions, so please upgrade to the latest versions of Firefox and Google Toolbar. (If you would like more details, see this bugzilla page.) For now, please wait a moment with further edits to this article until I have restored the lost content. Thank you, and happy editing!  ~~ ~~



template ends


Use this template ({{subst:Google bug|Article name}}) on a user talk page to warn other editors when they have inadvertently truncated articles because of the Firefox / Google Toolbar bug ([1]). If you can, please also help to repair the damaged article afterwards, because the person you are warning probably couldn't do it themselves even if they want to. The message is automatically signed.


Template usage notes
  • Most test(n) templates take a single optional parameter: the name of the page to which the template applies. If provided, this page will be cited in the warning.
  • test5 optionally takes two parameters:
  1. The first is the duration of the block (with "temporarily blocked" as the default if a specific period is not provided).
  2. The second is the name of the page to which the template applies. If provided, this page will be cited in the warning.
  • Please refer to the index of test templates before using any template on user talk pages to warn a user. Applying the best template available for your purpose may help reduce confusion from the message you are sending.
  • Please remember to substitute the template—use {{subst:Google bug}} rather than {{Google bug}}.
