Doesn't happen when logged out or without sysop rights.

Request from 89.177.50.85 via cp2013 cp2013, Varnish XID 671981055
Error: 503, Service Unavailable at Wed, 26 Apr 2017 08:28:32 GMT

When I deleted that page, all changes to it should have been deleted from recentchanges which didn't happen. This is already tracked (T153849) and doesn't break the site for anonymous and non-sysop users. But it does for me as a sysop.

The problem occurs when row with rc_id = 508121191 is to be rendered.

Nothing seems to break for me as 1) an anon user 2) a regular logged in user 3) a sysop.

I am guessing you mean when you deleted Talk:Q1751912?

I'm not sure if this is actually a different issue from that described in T153849, or anything specific to catwatch from what I can see.

1), 2) same by me but not 3). It either doesn't load for me, or shows "Wikimedia Error" screen. And the difference is (not) having hidecategorization=0 in the URL... oh, it only happens with enhanced changes (enhanced=1).

@Addshore I think this is mistake, see my comment in gerrit.

  #15 {main}

So it looks like this was caused by https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/288579/24/includes/changes/EnhancedChangesList.php

Prior to this the null would have made it to Linker::link where the following would have happened.

		if ( !$target instanceof Title ) {
			wfWarn( __METHOD__ . ': Requires $target to be a Title object.', 2 );
			return "<!-- ERROR -->$html";
		}

where $html would have been $rcObj->timestamp from within the beginRecentChangesList method...

Sounds like we just need to fix whatever is pass in in null since nothing should have been taking advantage of that?
