Description

Motivation
Many revision lists offer rollback links in their lists. Currently we know that this is the case for

History page
Changes lists (recent changes, watchlist)
user contributions special page

We are not sure that this list is complete

Acceptance Criteria

Find out, if the rollback link is added to any other place of mediawiki core but the lists mentioned above and the diff page

Notes

It seems that the rollback link is added through Linker:generateRollback
Another option is searching with mediawiki code search for one of the important functions / "rollback"

I have used the MediaWiki Code Search and looked for "rollback" and "generateRollback" respectively.

The only missing element from this ticket is "Related Changes" ("Änderungen an verlinkten Seiten" in German):

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:RecentChangesLinked?hidebots=1&hidecategorization=1&hideWikibase=1&target=Category%3AAmerican_films&limit=50&days=7&urlversion=2

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spezial:%C3%84nderungen_an_verlinkten_Seiten?hidebots=1&hidecategorization=1&hideWikibase=1&target=Kategorie%3AUS-amerikanischer_Film&limit=50&days=7&urlversion=2

These can be found in categories on the left in the "Tools" section when viewing an article / category. However, this falls into the "changes lists" block from above and shares all relevant code with the other changes lists as far as I can see.
