Bug ID: 45237
Summary: LinkSearch uses numeric offset paging instead of
paging by last entry returned
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.21-git
Hardware: All
URL: http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special
:LinkSearch&limit=500&offset=5000&target=http%3A%2F%2F
www.wga.hu%2Fart%2F
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Special pages

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
I noticed today, that paging on special:linksearch uses a numeric offset. For
example:
http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:LinkSearch&limit=500&offset=5000&target=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wga.hu%2Fart%2F
For efficiency reasons it should probably use an offset of the last entry
displayed on the page. (For example:
offset=http://www.wga.hu/art/c/crespi/daniele/pieta.jpg or something)
Note: I say this without looking how it is implemented/the db queries. So I may
be misunderstanding the issues involved.
