Now the draft it is showing only a paragraph, and the revisions before it even less than that.

Why is it only showing my earlier saves and none of my later ones? How do I avoid this problem in the future?

Had you saved it as a draft already? WordPress should automatically save the post as a draft as you edit.

Navigate to your Dashboard -> All Posts and look for the Draft link near the top (next to Published or Trash)

I've been having trouble on the Oxygen theme. In that whenever I got to preview a draft I end up with a page that says;

OOPS! THAT PAGE CAN’T BE FOUND.

It looks like nothing was found at this location. Maybe try one of the links below or a search?

Some background I noticed it started to happen when I had ab out 5 or 6 articles saved as drafts but yet to be published. I thought maybe it would revert to normal after they were all published, but this is not the case.

Has anyone had this problem before and has a fix? Grateful for any advice.

The blog that I'm having trouble with is http://irresponsiblelife.com

What probably happened is that they are autosaved copies of something you already published.
You should be able to see on the Posts page that you have duplicate entries, one that has been published and one that is a draft.

I'd like to know if I can safely delete these drafts, w/o deleting the actual posts.

I see no option to delete a draft, unless I first select the "edit" option. Once there, there is the option to toss it into the draft. Don't know, though, if this will also delete the actual entry. TIA.

1. Try flushing your FB cache but disconnect from FB first http://umairj.com/146/how-to-clear-facebook-shares-cache/
2. Try the full reconnect procedure again detailed at http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#reconnecting-facebook including step 3 (removing the FB app), which is probably the most important step.
3. See also publicize troubleshooting http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#troubleshooting

Note: RSS Grafitti http://www.facebook.com/RSS.Graffiti can be used for posting to Facebook walls if you prefer. RSS Graffiti periodically checks the RSS/Atom feeds that you specify and posts any new entries it finds to the Facebook Walls that you specify. You can get any feed written on any wall (Facebook Profiles, Fan Pages, Groups, Events and Application Profile Pages). In fact, multiple feeds to multiple walls. You choose the combination.

when publicizing a draft post it does not appear on my Facebook time line. Is this a known bug?

Drafts aren't published posts. Only published posts are publicized. Only published posts can be "shared". http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/

Is this a known bug? Is there another reason why this happens?
Creating a post and publicizing it immediately works fine. Yesterday I had a fit of creativity and wrote a few entries for my blog and saved those as a draft, to publicize them on a later time. I can work around by copying the draft, delete it and then create it anew, but that takes extra work.

Thanks. I guess what I was trying to say is I thought there was once, maybe with the old lay-out, a separate link for "Drafts" similar to the "Post", or "All Post" link, and I just couldn't recall where it was. But, Its probably wishful thinking.
Thanks for your response.

Or are you asking about reverting just one post to a previous version?

If the latter is the case, then you'll have to scroll through the revisions of the post to find the one you want to go back to.
