Bug #: 42304
Summary: Allow moving of an article when some user tries to
create dummy versions in a redirect
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Redirects
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
Consider the following scenario. Some user may move some page and then does
some minor edits to the created redirect in order to disallow moving the page
back without administrators.
We encountered such behavior in the Ukrainian Wikipedia. While I agree that
this is rather an issue of users themselves, it would still great to allow
moving back a page in such scenario.
One suggestion is to allow moving of page if the target page history is
following:
1) the first and the last versions are redirects
2) all other versions are created by the same user who created the first
version or are redirects (this case will allow also a page move in case when
bots made edits in order to fix double redirects)
