This page contains notes about the tutorials and documentation I plan to create to help new MediaWiki users minimize the impact of session timeouts.

  • If just noticed an Edit page that has probably been open for less than 4 hours (session has timed out)
    • Scroll to the top, right click on the logo in the upper right, choose open in new tab, login, go back to first tab, click Save
  • If you noticed an Edit page > 8 hours (session has ???? -> ask ChatGPT for the terminology)
    • Scroll to top, right click on the Read link and choose New Window. Open the two windows side-by-side and review the page line by line. If you see disrepancies, click Edit in the new window that just opened. Most likely there
