--- Comment #2 from Bawolff <[email protected]> 2011-04-09 23:16:12 UTC --- Further confusing behaviour. When BarkingFish "rejected" the page move, this caused the dummy edit that gets inserted on a page move to actually become sighted (The opposite of expected behaviour). ( https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikinews/en/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&page=38_killed_in_attack_on_Afghan_bank&hide_patrol_log=1&hide_review_log=0 ) My theory for what happened is: *Diego moved the page, inserting a dummy edit into the page history as normal. Dummy edit is not sighted as normal *BarkingFish came along and rejected that change. *Rejecting (From my understanding anyways, could be mistaken) involves making an edit that restores the previous version, and sighting that edit. Since the previous version is exactly the same as the current version (since it's just a dummy edit), MediaWiki considered this new edit as a null edit, and didn't insert it into the db. However it still tried to flag this revert, but instead ended up flagging diego's original move. End result, it appears as if BarkingFish sighted the very thing he tried to reject, which seems rather wrong. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
