Sections disappear in the new editor

I was using the new editor, wrote most of my article, went to look at it in world view, saw some things that needed changing, made some edits, and then when I refreshed the world view, a lot of it had dissappeared. I checked the editor, but it was still there. There was also a green tick at the bottom. I made some more changes in one field (it was motivations in character), refreshed again, and those changes appeared, but others hadn't returned. So then I update one of the other sections (given name) and refreshed. Given name was there, but motivations had dissapeared. As this was the first time I'd done something in the new editor, I decided to go back to writing in old view, and all of my article dissapeared, despite it saying it had saved, and there were green ticks everywhere. I have to start again.

Steps to Reproduce

It might be hard to reproduce as I had been working on this article for a few days, and all of a sudden it stopped working. I can't think of anything that triggered it, that I had never done before.

Operating System

Windows

Browser

Google Chrome

Related Entity

The character article in the new visual editor. I'd show some images, but there is none of my imputed texts in any of the fields.

it seems like there was some sort of formatting that we haven't accounted for in the parser/wysiwyg team - we are sorry for the content loss, we are always trying to improve edgecases. If you do encounter it again / can rememebr what you had written, what kind of formatting did you use etc please try to save the bbcode for us to inspect and try to get to the bottom of this :)
