Description Jack Bates 2009-02-06 00:32:29 UTC I wish there were a syntax for linking to a specific revision of a page. Something like [[Page name@123]] just for example... It would expand to http://example.com/wiki/index.php?title=Page_name&oldid=123 Comment 1 Danny B. 2009-02-06 00:37:24 UTC Kinda dupe to my proposal in bug 16659 comment 9. Comment 2 Huji 2009-02-06 12:54:32 UTC Well I like the idea of Special:Permalink too, and I can't think of a way to object it.
