Krinkle <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #15 from Krinkle <[email protected]> 2011-02-03 01:12:40 UTC --- For the record, both the "page id" and "first revision id" are variable and able to change without there being an edit made as far as I know. At the least they're not unique or guaranteerd to stay forever the same (the first revision could be deleted or hidden, then what ?). Or perhaps it was already deleted (to the archive table that is, not rev_del/hidden'ed), once it's restored, stuff changes first revision is no longer the first revision. Not to forget Special:Import, entirely new revisions coulid be inserted into the middle or before the history. is "first" revision referring to the first created, oldest timestamp or lowest revision number ? Or article histories are merged, then the the page id could change. Or when the entire page is deleted and undeleted (not sure if the id always stays the same when (un)deleting, I think sometimes or always a new page-id is assigned) Although there certainly are some magic words that are able to change without editing the page, given that pageid/first-revision-id are (also) able to change, the possible usecases may not apply anymore.
