Thread:Extension talk:WYSIWYG/Text gets scrambled on multiple switches between CK and WikiText

This is with MW 1.24.1 and WYSIWYG editor 1.5.6_0. It starts in WYSIWYG, which looks fine. On the first toggle to wiki text editing it looks fine. Then usually (but not always) any more toggling reduces the page edited to garbage. Line endings and paragraph formatting are totally lost. Special characters like (without the spaces) & # x 5 B ; start showing up in the text version.

What is the last combination of MW and WYSIWYG were the toggle is safe to use? We need to upgrade from 1.16, with an early version of WYSIWYG, and have users who make good and frequent use of the capability of toggling between the two editors. Back then the toggle just worked. I for one would go crazy without having the toggle option.

Really appreciate all the effort going into this.
