Description MZMcBride 2009-01-19 21:22:13 UTC
So I'm at work editing Wikipedia and forget to save before I head home. During my drive home, the page is moved to better page title.

I load up Special:Drafts, find my draft, click save page, and suddenly I've overwritten a redirect.

Presumably Drafts should do something similar to RecentChanges and base everything off some sort of ID number to keep things functional if the &title= changes?
Comment 1 Trevor Parscal 2009-04-16 23:09:18 UTC
When pages are moved, a hook is now called which updates the titles and namespaces of drafts which reference the article - thus making them follow the page.
