             Bug #: 31312
           Summary: Page messed up after undeletion
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.18
          Platform: All
               URL: http://nl.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Blankenbach&;
                    action=history
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Page editing
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified


I don't have a better title as I have no idea what exactly happened.

Steps that lead to this bug:
* A page was created in 2007 ([[nl:Blankenbach]])
* An edit was made in 2007
* 4 edits were made in 2011
* A sysop wanted to get rid of those 4 'test' edits. Done so by deleting the
page and restoring the first 2 revisions only. This went well. The page was now
visible on action=view with that second edit as page_latest
* Another sysop (me) wanted to undo that so that those 4 test edits are
publically in the history (since they were permalinked from a bug report).
Since MediaWiki doesn't allow restoring revisions that are newer than
page_latest (I tried, but failed properly), I deleted the entire page again and
this time restored all revisions.

Result:
* Page can't be viewed ([[nl:Blankenbach]]), MediaWiki error about page not
having content
* When viewing a diff of the latest edit [1] there is a link to the "next
revision" even though there is no next revision.
* Page can't be edited (everlasting edit conflict)
