This is on: http://peeragogy.fed.wiki.org/view/welcome-visitors (but with yellow borders, which I think means I'm editing locally).

BTW: this is potentially a copy of #275?

Probably, were you trying to drag/drop something into the factory? the JSON above looks like a factory punt (basically the last resort if the factory doesn't know what to make of something you put in it) The number indicated that it didn't think you were trying to drop a file, and it didn't think you were trying to make a reference to another wiki (pretty much the two things factory drag/drop has been coded for). What was the action that caused this? And what browser/OS are you using? As stated in #275, drop logic has to yet to be coded for all combos of browser/OS.

Types: says plaintext, which makes me think you were trying to drag and drop a paragraph of text from a non SFW source... which could probably be coded for without too much trouble, but as a pragmatic usability tip for now I recommend copy/paste into a new paragraph vs click and drag.

disclaimer: I'm not an authority around here... I've just had some adventures with similar surprises. Best of luck.

AFAIKT, it wasn't caused by me, but by another user - so if that info isn't
logged, I can't be of much further help.

I'll let #275 stand for this problem. @rynomad, thanks for good explanation.
