Api: Don't log (un)reviewing or tagging as copyvio if state doesn't change
Closed, ResolvedPublicBUG REPORT

Description

Steps to reproduce (un)reviewing:

  1. Find a page that has been patrolled (or is not patrolled)
  2. Using the API, mark the page as patrolled (or unpatrolled)

Steps to reproduce copyvio:

  1. Tag a revision as a likely copyright violation
  2. Tag the same revision again

Expected result:

  • API returns result done and adds no log entry, since nothing changes

Actual result:

  • (un)reviewing: API returns result success and adds a log entry, even though nothing changed
  • copyvio: API returns result success, even though nothing changed
