Commit summary for MediaWiki.r100315: * Made ?contribs=user actually show the results for the *user* if 'newbies' was given as the user. * Added a link batch query to newbie contribs paging Bawolff's comment: I wouldn't be opposed to that, although its certainly not ideal. I think its better to ban username newbies then it is to break all the existing links. On the other hand, its only "newbies" with a lowercase n we have to care about, and we normalize all usernames to uppercase first (I believe) so we could make 'Newbies' be the username, and 'newbies' be the new folks contribs only one directly from 'subpage' and not from form submit. But special casing like that seems evil... _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
