(bug 27756, bug 26328) Removed AJAX preview (on diff) loading: causes more trouble than it's worth. If any reincarnation is added it must handle these problems (which involve rethinking the page loading model). Also, diffs use the current page cache when possible. The focus should be on avoiding fragmentation. Additionally, diffonly=0 in review links could be altered (we already enumerate template/file changes). Comment: Aaron, I'm really surprised you made this change. On complicated pages, parse times make viewing diffs unusably slow. Do you have a plan for fixing the problems the Ajax loading of oldrevs was designed to address, or are you planning to ignore those problems? _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
