I cannot seem to edit pages -- I'm logged in, and I am trying to add a Wikipedia bio link for Johann August Just. Despite >10 attempts, always get the message:
"Some parts of the edit form did not reach the server; double-check that your edits are intact and try again."
The "Captcha" thing (is this really necessary even when logged in?) appears to be impossible: "Two words" it says, but there is never more than one word (or fragment) plus a jumble that could be practically anything. The audio version sounds to me like noise. So I can't tell if the "Captcha" is failing, or there is some other problem...
Help!
Captcha problems?

Re: Captcha problems?
Well, I got it to work eventually, though I am not entirely certain how.
I still think it would greatly help if there were rather more explanation of what is expected: what do these people mean by a "word"? Just a random sequence of characters?

Re: Captcha problems?
Yes, sorry. Captchas are terrible in general, and I'm sure you'll encounter them more on the internet...
