           Summary: Inconsistent separators in Watchlist with and without
                    "enhanced recent changes"
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.15-svn
          Platform: All

                    een_page_name_and_timestamp_in_watchlist
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Watchlist

With the recent changes to the way separators have been implemented (bug7509,
r47046 and related) there is now an unresolvable inconsistency in the way they
are used in watchlist entries. Without ERC, entries show up like this:

(diff) (hist) . . Glenn Quagmire‎; 17:29 . . (+18) . . 86.20.232.82 (talk |
block) [rollback]

and With ERC, like this:

17:29  Glenn Quagmire‎ (diff; hist) . . (+18) . . 86.20.232.82 (talk | block)
[rollback]

Note the *horrible* "diff; hist" construct that is now created.  *BUT* that
semicolon is from the same system message ([[MediaWiki:semicolon-separator]])
that produces the semicolon after the article title without ERC. The bug is
that, with ERC, the diff/hist links should use the [[MediaWiki:pipe-separator]]
system message for the separator. I've looked through the various code revs
associated with these changes, and I can't get my head around where to find the
relevant lines; assigning to siebrand 'cos he did them in the first place :D
