Thanks Thomas. I'll try to review any it.wikisource specific routine linked
to upload event into nsPage. The bug - more or less - is some weeks old,
and it seems linked to changes into proofread page extension. We already
fixed some bugs springing out from changes in Index form names, but this
bug is really very hard, since it is unpredictable, "random"; I suspect
some very subtle conflict between different scripts.
I'll post your opinion into our Village pump.
I'll try to catch the problem deselecting any gadget, then activating them
again one by one.

Hi!
This bug is very strange. Its looks like it append only on italian
Wikisource, so I think that one of your common.js script of gadget cause
the bug.
This bug is impradicable it might be caused by a change of execution order
of two script, by example your common.js (or a gadget) and scripts of
ProofreadPage.
ProofreadPage init header, footer and quality contents from the content of
the main textbox in its JavaScript so you mustn't supposed that the header
and footer content is removed from the textbox when you write a script
because this removing may occur after your script execution.
The variables are not merged by JavaScript but directly by PHP in the
function "onEditPageImportFormData" of ProofreadPage.body.php and I don't
think there is a bug at this level because all Wikisources would be
affected.
So, I think that the bug is maybe caused by:
- A script that make the initialization of textboxes fail (by example by
changing main textbox content before execution of ProofreadPage).
- A script that make the fields empty on submitting.
- ...

Subject: [Wikisource-l] Proofreading bug: Change not allowed
When proofreading pages in it.wikisource, we are plagued by this message:
Change not allowed - You are not allowed to change the proofreading status
of this page
Going back to failed page, we noted that:
1. quality level is reverted to 1;
2. anything stored into header has been lost;
3. proofreadpage_username is set to an empty string
The bug is impredictable, it occurs with different frequencies to
different users when trying to edit different pages. Something wrong seems
to occur when building the page code merging variables, header, body and
footer contents. We wrote an "emergency fixing script" but it can only be
called after the edit turns out to be wrong.
Is something similar happening into any other wikisource project? Can you
give us a link to understand what's happening? And - where can we find the
js script which merges variables-header-body-footer into page code to send
it to the server?
