There is an error when saving a mining log from the edit. When a log is edited, the end of each line has a newline added, making the first edit double space, the second triple space, etc.

Edit: This info is incorrect. I just noticed that it has to do with the way the logs are saved. Wherever the log wraps on someone's screen, a newline is created, leading to skinny logs from the submit box and fatter ones if they are edited.

Edit 2: This problem is only present when editing something that was placed in the initial log submit window. Editing posts that were pasted into an edit works fine, without newline creation or duplication. Tested on my start log for the Mines project.

Edit 3: I have gotten many blank lines between when pasting from notepad with word-wrap turned on, though the blank lines went away when i re-copied from the same file without word-wrap.

Please PM / email the block of problem text that contains the word 'converted'. I was able to update with the word without issue. Thx

Thanks! This defiantly helps, will investigate and report when it's fixed. Will also add, delete to logs. Deleting a log will revert a submission's last updated date to the previous log or if none exists, the submission date.

I should probably allow votes to be neutralized as well. Added to tasks but not a high priority.

Random Also, the logs do not have a delete, in case a log was accidentally posted, much the way a vote, up or down, is permanent.

New error, the log that I was unable to submit is also not able to be submitted as a miner log. text will (hopefully) be pasted below for inspection. (Text redacted to keep entry small because of root cause listed below)

Edit: removing the string 'on' from all parts of the message (including the middle of words) allows submission.

Edit 2: the word 'converted' is what is keeping the updates from being posted. Exhaustive search yields results. Hooray for win. Hope this helps you find the root cause for that.
