Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

Story

As someone who is wanting to reference or revisit a discussion I remember having subscribed to, I want to be able to find and copy the link to where the discussion currently exists, so that I can locate a discussion regardless of whether it's been moved to another page at any point.

Behavior

  1. Visit: Special:TopicSubscriptions
  2. Locate the discussion you are wanting to reference within the table that appears. E.g. "Planning Deployment of Reply Tool as Opt-Out"
  3. Copy the link address of the discussion you are wanting to reference. //E.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Talk_pages_project#Planning_Deployment_of_Reply_Tool_as_Opt-Out.//

Current

  1. ❗️Notice the link you copied in "Step 3." no longer contains the discussion you were wanting to reference

Desired

  1. ✅ The link you copied in "Step 3." takes you to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)/Archive_187#Offering_the_Reply_Tool_as_an_opt-out_feature

Done

  • "Desired" behavior is implemented
