Hi,

Students on the Translation Studies MSc course at the University of Edinburgh are translating articles using Content Translation. User:Sariputrahan is trying to translate the Chinese Wikipedia article on the Tianjin Grand Theater into English Wikipedia but User:Maxliu1993 accidentally began to translate the article in her Content Translation tool.

Maxliu1993 has since been translating a different article to allow Sariputrahan to translate the Tianjin Grand Theater article BUT it is still showing the warning that she is still working with it:

"This is an ongoing translation by Maxliu1993.

Please make sure you coordinate with the user who translated the current translation."

If Maxliu1993 has correctly discarded this aborted translation then Sariputrahan should be able begin. Am I correct? However when I have tried to discard a translation in 1 Wikipedia account and then begun it with a 2nd Wikipedia account then it displays a 'Fatal Exception'. I did this 10 minutes ago so wondered whether there is a time delay in processing a discarded translation and then a different user being able to work on that translation in their Content Translation tool.

Any advice?
