Today is the birthday of the oldest open bug in Phabricator. If this bug was a human, it could now drink beer in Germany. Happy 16th birthday!

I took a look at this to understand how easy it was to solve and discovered two other bugs in EasyTimeline while making no progress solving this issue. Sigh.

Change #1053087 had a related patch set uploaded (by Pppery; author: Pppery):

[mediawiki/extensions/timeline@master] Process Wikilinks in legends

Yes, I did claim this task because it was the oldest open task and I wanted some kind of internal glory for solving the oldest task.

I forgot to do this yesterday, but I want to congratulate everyone on the 20th anniversary of this bug! :)

Nicely done! Hopefully this will get fixed soon and the oldest bug noise will move over to T2006 instead.
