action=render: forgot main action=edit link?
Closed, InvalidPublic

Description

No big deal but,
$ URL=...index.php?title=Some_page
$ mech-dump --links $URL|grep -c edit
8
$ mech-dump --links $URL\&action=render|grep -c edit
6

What's the difference? Mainly the latter lacks
...title=Some_page&action=edit

I.e., both have the many
title=Some_page&action=edit&section=...

But the latter lacks
title=Some_page&action=edit

Therefore there is no way to edit the top most part of the page if one
uses action=render.

I'd say give all the edit links or none.

Anyway I stumbled upon this action=render thing, and was sure you
wanted my test drive results.
