[Immersion bug] Upload system discarding content from the original article (source)

[Dessamator]

I uploaded this article [1], http://justpaste.it/do92, and somehow Duolingo seems to have discarded several sentences from the original article when it got uploaded.

It seems to have eaten (discarded) these sentences:

• Respect the language register(e.g. formal language) when translating :https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Register_(sociolinguistics);

• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Wikipedia:_The_Missing_Manual/Collaborating_with_Other_Editors/Resolving_Content_Disputes#Avoiding_Content_Disputes; and

• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style#National_varieties_of_Englis .

There could be more sentences or words being discarded, but I'm not sure, these are just the ones I noticed.

Can you give me a link to the Immersion article?

Hrm...Seems fine now!

[Dessamator]

Nope, did you compare it to the original article? Those lines are definitely missing. I downloaded the completed translation, and it is still missing. So, either I'm blind or there is something wrong.

Perhaps I didn't explain it properly, with discarded, I mean that these sentences are not in the uploaded document, while they are in the source document.

[BenTheGeek]

Oh! Yes! It did! Try uploading it again!
Edit: First remove the article though.

Well, the deed is done, besides that text is outdated anyway, I've added some stuff to the original guidelines, and the missing lines aren't a big deal. I was just alerting the staff to this problem.

Besides some users may be annoyed if they see the same thing twice.

[BenTheGeek]

Yes.
