Bug #: 34877
Summary: Broken logs after special page name change
Product: MediaWiki extensions

OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: major

Hi. Once upon a time the page to create and change wikisets was called
Special:EditWikiSets. Changes were logged at the global rights log as this
(taking Special:EditWikiSets/2 as example [the global bot wikis]):
https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=gblrights&user=&page=Special%3AEditWikiSets%2F2&year=&month=-1&tagfilter=
Now, the page is called Special:WikiSets, so changes are logged as
Special:WikiSets/<number of wikiset>:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=gblrights&user=&page=Special%3AWikiSets%2F2&year=&month=-1&tagfilter=
So, because of the rename of the special page the logs ore split in two. This
causes confusion and lack of transparency.
I hope the explanation is clear. Notwithstanding I've CCd another steward who
can explain better.
Thank you.
