[Bug 16705] New page log can be fooled into not showing a new page
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16705 --- Comment #4 from Rd232 2012-02-28 18:06:22 UTC --- Quoting myself from Bug #29286: Similar to bug #12363 (which covers userspace moves into mainspace), in that both are loopholes in the coverage of Special:Newpages. Redirects converted into articles do not show up as needing to be patrolled. Yet such pages are in some cases particularly likely to need patrolling, since in some cases a decision has already been made that an article is not warranted. I mention this because comment #1 talks about existing articles being moved out of the way, and the resulting redirect then converted into an article. The case I was considering was existing redirects later being converted by someone else. The same solution will presumably apply to both, but it is a different scenario, and I think an additional motivation for addressing this bug. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16705 --- Comment #2 from Gurch 2009-01-04 23:51:08 UTC --- Yeah, I agree it's not very useful for vandals (though you could probably fool RC patrol by moving a user subpage there and back, pretending to be moving an article you started and then reverting yourself... sssh don't tell anyone). I just thought it was worth mentioning as a possible inconsistency in the way things were handled. But then it seems there's lots of those. :) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

I don't think this otherwise occurs much... That said...I suppose one could check page_is_new and page_is_redirect on edit and flag pages in RC as "new" if it is not a redirect anymore... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.
