Minor bugs that nevertheless need looking into

I've had a poke in the database, seems to be a one-off mistake somewhere along the line. The particular failure mode won't occur again because of internal changes.

For the interested, here's the failure mode (extract from var dump):

[old_wikitext] => AFComputedVariable Object
    (
        [mMethod] => revision-text-by-timestamp
        [mParameters] => Array
            (
                [timestamp] => 
                [namespace] => 6
                [title] => ROA.png
            )

    )
