--- Comment #2 from Jon <[email protected]> --- Agreed. There is nothing stopping us from enabling it there and to enable it there is really trivial. When we have done this in the past we have been asked not to e.g. Special:Uploads (although Special:Nearby we then were asked to enable it - so I guess we can't always be right :-)). So MZ... I'm happy to enable this on desktop if you can show the community wants this. I will do it personally if you can come back with that information. To dispel a few myths though.. * The desktop link does link to the desktop history page e.g. titte=Barack_Obama&action=history&mobileaction=toggle_view_desktop (although there is a bug in production in the redirector that means this won't be fully working till Thursday's deployment) - see http://en.m.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Special:History/Forty-seven_Ronin for a working example - so there is no bad user experience here. * We have not reserved the Special:History namespace. In fact it was written at a time when we expected the history page was going to be turned into a special page. I think this change got to desktop got reverted? It only shows up as no one has implemented this on desktop. If core ever decides to implement this it will just work, Special:History will just be enabled on the mobile view. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
