             Bug #: 28820
           Summary: Diffs using rev_id should work when one or both
                    revisions is deleted
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: History/Diffs
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
        Depends on: 21279
    Classification: Unclassified


(Forked from bug 21279 comment 33 per Brion)

Per bug 21279, code will be patched so that deleted revisions can be referenced
by their rev_id, and this will work regardless of subsequent delete/undelete
activity.

Once this is done, can diff handling be enhanced so that a correct diff will
still be generated if one or both rev_id's are deleted revisions.

This would ensure that any diffs posted on-wiki or noted by users for future
would be guaranteed to be capable of generation and review regardless of future
deletion/undeletion. 

At present a diff between arbitrary deleted revisions, or a deleted and
non-deleted revision, is not possible, and if a revision is deleted then any
diffs it was once part of, are no longer able to be displayed, even if the user
has the appropriate viewing rights to both revisions.
