Barlesque Bug: Curators and possibly Editors editing pages

Gnomon - time to move on

If you are not listed as the "Edited by" of an Entry, you are not normally allowed to edit it. But Curators and Editors can edit any Approved Entry.

If a curator edits an Approved Entry using the new system, the "Edited by" field is changed to the name of the curator. This should not happen - the original sub-editor's name should be preserved in that field.

I suspect this bug also applies if an Editor edits any entry.

The H2G2 Editors

Hi Gnomon. Thanks for your comment. We'll take a look at that. We've made it so that in the new system it should actually show if someone has made a change other than the original Sub-editor, but their name should be listed second and certainly shouldn't replace the original sub's. So this is a bug that needs to fixed. smiley - ok
