Bug ID: 43509
Summary: Special:Whatlinkshere pagination broken
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.21-git
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Special pages
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
The (prev) links rely on having a &back= id from which they can be filled. This
works neatly if you want to go back one level, but try and go back two in a row
and the whole thing falls apart.
For example:, take
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere/Abacus . Now
go forward (next) two times, and then back twice. In fact, you get trapped on
page 2, because now there's no &back= id to use in the generation of a (prev)
link.
WLH should probably copy other special pages and do "(prev)" using a dir=prev
parameter.
