Description

Cannot reproduce either on 2.7, nor 5.0.1

I've created a template page in syntax 2.0 and than a provider using this template page (in 5.0.1 I've also selected 'Action on create: Save and Edit').
When I press 'Add -> Page' I select to use my template and I get a new page with the content of the template page set in syntax 2.0.
Changing the Document Syntax from 2.0 to 2.1 (experimental in 2.7), shows me the alert, I press ok, the content of the page copied from the template is not wiped;

The only case of lost content is if I add new text and then change the syntax, but as long as I didn't saved before, this is normal to happen since we don't provide a warning, see related issue XWIKI-3779
