Hi, I am looking for some bug tracking thing where I could keep track of how the various caching issues on Wikipedia are being addressed. Issues like Wikipedia showing the "view source" tab rather than the "edit" tab, or claiming there are pending revisions when there aren't. Some time ago I'd have added broken images due to pending revisions, but that at least seems to have been addressed. I also had, about two months ago, an issue on Commons where a page would constantly automatically reload, unless you did something like clicking Edit and then Read again, unless you did clear your cache, in which case the issue would re-appear. I also had an issue where some thread on the german Wikipedia would not be updated un- less you forced some reload, and it would re-appear again if you happen to clear your cache and re-connect to your ISP (meaning you get a new IP address).
(This is all for users who are not logged into any account.) I've tried a couple of times to find something on Bugzilla, but in over a year and a half or so could not find much, so either I suck at search or these problems have poor visibility. (I'd post links, but the issues are not quite as reproducible as you'd might like; a recent case I noticed was de:WP:K, some time after it was locked it showed only "Show Source" rather than "Edit", but if you did click "Show Source" that'd turn into "Edit". That was last week. I also saw the "pending revisions even though there are none" issue after it, but I don't recall which page it was on.) regards, -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:[email protected] · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Am Badedeich 7 · Telefon: +49(0)160/4415681 · http://www.bjoernsworld.de 25899 Dagebüll · PGP Pub.
