Description:
I discovered this at the Homestar Runner Fanstuff Wiki
(http://fanstuff.hrwiki.org) a few days ago. While I was running my bot
(deleting images), I discovered that even if images had already been deleted,
they had been reported successfully deleted.
Basically, if I go to an URL such as
"/index.php?title=Non-existant_page&action=delete", it will tell me that the
page doesn't exist and won't let me do anything else. However, if I go to
something like "/index.php?title=Image:Non-existant_image.ext&action=delete",
the deletion page will come up as if it existed. I can then proceed to press
"Confirm", and it will tell me that the image has been deleted, although it
never even existed. No log entry or anything like that is generated.
Marked as minor because it doesn't really affect anything, although it can give
false outputs on bot runs.
