>             Project: Whimsy
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Roster
>         Environment: Firefox 107.0 on Fedora
>            Reporter: Ken Coar
>            Priority: Major

> I just used [https://whimsy.apache.org/roster/committer/coar] to edit my '{{{}Members.txt{}}}' entry, and now it appears to be gone.  As does my 'forms on file' and 'member status' fields, possibly among others.
> I _did_ remove some of the textual information that appeared to be duplicated in the other fields on the page (like PMC membership,  '{{{}Avail ID{}}}', {_}&c.{_}), but AFAIK i didn't delete the entire {{Members.txt}} form field *content* before clicking on submit.
> So, hopefully, there's a way to roll this back.  The {{/committers/{_}user{_}}} form appears to be an update-in-place, so I can't use my browser's Back button to move to a version prior to the edit.
> If some of the information that populates the other fields on the form has its authoritative version in the {{members.txt}} entry, it came as a surprise to me..!
