What did you do? ================ Entered a URL for a new article I wanted to create. What happened? ============== Above the empty editor I saw this message: "You have a draft from: 7.9.2016 09:37:01. Restore the draft content. Discard the draft. Enable autosave." Clicking on "Restore the draft content" loaded the contents of a previous article I created lately. What should have happened? ========================== There should no draft be saved when starting to create a new article. Is there anything else we should know? ====================================== I assume the saved draft is from the last page I created, so it was not removed after the page got created.
I think this is a regression based on the changes we made to the save draft functionality because drafts are not discarded on publish anymore, now they wait for publish confirmation and this breaks down if the URL changes between the editing page and the published page.

This was fixed in mozilla/kuma#4186. Drafts are disabled for new pages - save early!
