Put the cursor over your account name in the upper right corner of the page, and click on 'My Articles'. There you will have the list of all your articles, whether published or not. Unfinished articles get a red subtitle line stating they are still drafts.

I already did. The latest version is of 28 Jan., although I was working on this article in on last Friday and yesterday.

You will have to wait for a system admin to have a look at your issue, then.

You already have by posting here on the forum. Keep in mind that site admins are based in Toronto, so it shouldn't be very long now until they check in.

Yes, it is.

Excellent. You should be able to edit it. Just in case, I would save a local copy for yourself as well.

I'm able to edit it, but starting from the version of 28.01. There is a couple of days work lost.

It wasn't autosaved since 28.01, neither was it saved when I pressed "Save draft". That means, I don't see the versions that were supposed to be saved.

Or this?

Under the revisions tab, check "show auto-saved drafts" and you can start going through and seeing if those are more complete.

Hi Sean,
I have found a revision with a seeming most complete content (that of 18:11, 10.02). How can I turn it into my actual version? When I click "work on it", the editor opens with another content.

Vassili

Can you please send me a link to the version you want? Then I can send you the HTML if that helps.

Hi Sean,
it would also be nice to know how can I save my work on this article online. Actually, if I make some changes to the version I can edit(that of 28.01), and press "save draft", I still can edit only the version of (28.01). Is this article cursed? OMG | :OMG:

With the html file you've sent to me, I can delete this article and start the new one. Should I?
Regards,
Vassili

All the drafts are being saved. If you go back to a draft you can do a few things, if for some reason you can't edit it. There is a Rollback button so you can rollback to whatever draft you want, provided you check the box for the draft version. And you should also see icons in the upper right of each article. One should be "get the article's HTML for editing offline." If you click that you should get that draft's HTML. That's how I sent you the HTML for that specific draft.

Then keep a local copy for yourself, just in case (that's always just a good practice) as you go along.
