Web content article translations will preload its values back to the default language when updating.

To reproduce:

1. Create a structure with a "Text Box" field labeled "content"
2. Create a web content article based on that new structure
3. Fill in "english" in the content field and check localize for it
4. Add translation for the article for French
5. Fill in "french" for the content field and publish article
6. Now change the language of your user to French
7. Edit the article you created
8. Click on French translation and change the content field to "new french" and publish article
9. Edit the article again
10. Click on French translation and you will see that the content field now says "english"

It has prepopulated the translation with the default language content rather than the translated result
