Wishful thinking, eliminate (Edit) from Preview window
+1

I don't know how many times I've hit Edit (the little green Edit alongside the Preview window) while editing a Biography. It takes you to the WikiTree front page. Will not let you return to the yard long Profile you just completed.
Maybe it could be disabled in the Preview window, that would save much hair-pulling.

mmm.... took me awhile to find it. I just hit my browser's "back" button and it took me right back to where I was.
Never thought of that, my mouse has a back button and that is what I've been using.
Thanks.

Yes, even with an edit in progress with unsaved changes, if you go back to that page after accidentally navigating somewhere else, none of your changes are lost. I've done that just a few times.
