Rollback not working for revisions with a hidden username
Open, Needs TriagePublicBUG REPORT

Description

Rollback links have an empty from query parameter when the top revisions have been revdel'ed for the username. In this case rollback always fails (despite the presence of MediaWiki:Revertpage-nouser) and the performer is redirected to a page with the message MediaWiki:Alreadyrolled/en.

And, this is a separate issue but the redirected page looks ugly because it contains user links like:

  • Cannot rollback the last edit of PAGE by (username removed) (talk | contribs)

where User:(username removed) is globally locked. Perhaps we should have a different interface message?
