            Bug ID: 59128
           Summary: Rollback removal of sitelink doesn't check for
                    existence
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: WikidataClient
          Assignee: wikidata-b...@lists.wikimedia.org

I was looking at
https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges&tagfilter=new+editor+removing+sitelink
.

In this edit a link was removed:
https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q161843&diff=prev&oldid=97260644

Probably because https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groep_fan_Auwerk was deleted
over a month ago. 

I was able to rollback the edit
(https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q161843&diff=97263436&oldid=97260644)
without getting a warning about the fact that the page didn't exist anymore. 

To options:
* This is a bug and some checking code isn't run on rollback -> Patch needed
* This behavior is intentional -> Documentation at
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Rollback (and maybe other places) should
be updated and this bug closed as WONTFIX
