            Bug ID: 66593
           Summary: Special:WhatLinksHere -- "previous"-Link only allows
                    to backtrack once
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.24-git
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Special pages

On Special:WhatLinksHere the "previous X" pagination link is broken, it only
allows you to get back once.

Example:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere/Main_Page&from=19725&back=15586
The "previous" link on this page leads to
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere/Main_Page&from=15586&back=15586

Apparently it simply uses the "back" parameter as the new from, but isn't able
to backtrack any further; you can thus only get back one page, not more.

I've tried this on an old 1.15 so I'm assuming this never worked as intended.
