Description
About 3/4ths of the time, attempting to approve a submission directs me to an error page that reads 'Unable to update entry.' I can change an entry's content by copy/pasting the changes and updating it manually (actually opening the page in question and selecting Change Entry), but it's a hassle when the librarian screen doesn't work.

That's weird. I have a couple of website-related things that I plan to get out of the way first, but then I'll look into this.
I have often been told "the DMs don't care". What people fail to realize is that the DMs never reveal the details of any punitive actions taken, other than to those said actions are taken against. If a tree falls and nobody is around to hear it...

Just an update; found the pattern of why it's screwing up - it only rejects my change approvals/rejections when the changed entry is shorter than the original. If someone adds content instead of deleting it, I can't update it from the Librarian screen. Not random.
