Hi, I’m running into some problems:

- A notebook I’m working on ([link](https://beta.observablehq.com/d/891b65ef640cf116)) already has over 100 unsaved changes that won’t synchronize no matter how often I reload.
- When I try to fork the notebook I receive an error.
- When I click the “report a bug” button, nothing happens and the following error gets logged to console:

```auto
Refused to load the script 'https://sentry.io/api/embed/error-page/?eventId=f15774337db34b76a8fcd268c1086603&dsn=https%3A%2F%2F304a6596f6f4429ca14c815a78583500%40sentry.io%2F227955' because it violates the following Content Security Policy directive: "script-src https://static.observablehq.com https://www.google-analytics.com https://checkout.stripe.com 'sha256-47DEQpj8HBSa+/TImW+5JCeuQeRkm5NMpJWZG3hSuFU='".

Here’s some context. Looks like a node is not properly registered. Probably related to the bug I previously reported?

FYI, entering safe mode made me lose my edits. Luckily I dumped the history to JSON, so I’ll be able to restore some of the changes manually.

Apologies! I’m so sorry for this. Yes, this is related to yesterday’s bug. (The cause of the error has to do with the history—the node _was_ registered at the time it was moved, but this code is looking for the node in the _current_ state of the notebook, after the node had been removed.)

I’ve reverted the code that was causing this error and re-deployed.
