This changed in some version, probably due to https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T238385, and the anchor of == A B == is actually A_B now, which is also the result of {{anchorencode:A B}} as of 1.35.2.

This RFC is getting kinda ridiculous.

As a result, it is impossible to tell which points were already addressed in the comments, which comments were the motivation for the new points in the proposal etc.

Lahwaacz added a comment to T185167: Add a "Reset parent IDs" checkbox to the undelete interface.

The description of the advantages and disadvantages above is irrelevant to clarifying the meaning of the rev_parent_id field. You're assuming that the rev_parent_id is the only "unknown" and all other code is immutable, while you could modify other code to fix the wrong/undesired behaviour. You might even find out that the desired IDs can be computed differently, in which case using an ambiguous database field would be useless.

Lahwaacz added a comment to T183398: list=alldeletedrevisions returns pageid=0 instead of ar_page_id.

It's not intended as a backup solution, but caching for bots and other client tools. And since incremental dumps are not supported, it's actually much more efficient than downloading the full dumps again and again. Plus, the synchronization period is controlled by the client, not by the administrator releasing the dumps.

The cost I was referring to is for the more common "plain" redirects, e.g. Foo > Bar, with no section being involved. In that case you previously just follow a link to load a page, and you now follow a link, wait for the browser to receive the redirect, wait for the browser to follow that link instead, and then the page will load.

There are no custom OOjs UI themes because even if there were, it would be impossible to use them.

  • When accessed directly, do a proper 301 or 302 redirect instead of target

content with <link rel=canonical>

Not going to happen; see bug 18883. This would make it impossible to include the "(Redirected from $1)" message.

So perhaps the best we can do is to add a new "(Redirected from $1 to section $2)" message, so the user can at least know what section was supposed to scroll into view, and quickly jump to that section.

Lahwaacz added a comment to T13375: No (or broken) whitespace stripping in unnamed template parameter values..

Actually, it's the stripping around named parameters that is wrong. Newlines in front of tokens that need to be at the beginning of a line should never be stripped.

Lahwaacz added a comment to T76557: Special:MergeHistory causes incorrect byte change values in history.

Similar behaviour is on recent changes and user contributions lists, where first revisions of a page are marked with capital "N". When other (older) revisions are merged in front of the first revision, it is still marked with "N" in those lists, even though it is not first after the merge.

Lahwaacz added a comment to T100896: Allow skins to use different, custom OOUI themes.

I don't understand why this task does not block the transition of more and more MediaWiki elements to OOUI. As the most recent example, consider how the "move page" interface looks in MW 1.26 with the ArchLinux skin (compare with 1.25 version). It looks completely out of place and considering this task is still open, I assume there is no way to fix the style from the skin part.

Lahwaacz added a comment to T114603: Wrong squashing of blank lines when category link is "removed" from wikitext.

Related, but not the same. Category/language links are not handled equivalently to comments w.r.t. whitespace squashing. Consider the first snippet above,

Lahwaacz added a comment to T113876: Undocumented usage of generator=revisions.

Thank you for your input. The problem with generator=recentchanges is that it is affected by $wgRCMaxAge, but for the purpose of incremental grabbing the time span might be larger. Seems that I'll need to wait for list=allrevisions to make things more efficient than with revids...

Lahwaacz added a comment to T113876: Undocumented usage of generator=revisions.

All in all, there may just be a missing module like list=allrevisions to complete the functionality of prop=revisions, prop=deletedrevisions and list=alldeletedrevisions. Taking the same parameters as list=alldeletedrevisions would be sufficient for my use case outlined above. This would also likely solve T21314.
