--- Comment #4 from Brian McNeil <[email protected]> 2012-09-08 23:48:22 UTC --- Revision ID is problematic in that I doubt it is particularly portable (think export and import to another wiki). And yes, date may-well not be granular enough if you assume that it should be an exact revision you refer to. In that respect it should be possible to specify a date and time. However, the behaviour of the software should be to present the version of the File: which was current at the date-time given, even if there is no version with an exact match for date-time. It should work by looking back through the revision history to identify which version was valid/current at that given point in time. I'm glad you see this as a more elegant solution, it also has the benefit of abstracting away from the underlying data without a large processing hit. Those sort of approaches to problems generally last longer, make more sense to end-users and developers alike, and I'm sure Wikinews could wait for this if it's pencilled in as something which will be developed. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
