See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Anomie#User_script. If you aren't
logged in on a particular browser, then you paste in a Wikimedia URL that is
only accessible to Admins/whatever and that includes doing an action (e.g.
deleting) on multiple items (log entries, old versions of pages, etc.), and
then you log in and click "return to X", you get an error message. An example
of such a URL is
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3ASandbox&action=historysubmit&revisiondelete=1&diff=477738682&ids%5B477738682%5D=1&oldid=477736475&ids%5B477736475%5D=1&ids%5B477734577%5D=1.
The error message you get when trying to return to the page is:

"Invalid target revision: You have either not specified a target revision(s) to
perform this function, the specified revision does not exist, or you are
attempting to hide the current revision. 
Return to Main Page."

If you are already logged in, pasting in the URL works fine.
