See, for example, http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:AbuseLog&details=593181 corresponds to http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Howcast&diff=296900469&oldid=296900306, and not http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Howcast&diff=296900469&oldid=296900379. This only happens when the times of the edits are close to each other; it was suggested that the reason for this is edit conflicts.
Just saw this here: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:AbuseLog&details=655331 http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Billy_Mays&diff=299135707&oldid=299135669 http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Billy_Mays&diff=299135707&oldid=299135414 Looks like the automatic resolving of edit conflicts is what is causing this.
(In reply to comment #1) > Looks like the automatic resolving of edit conflicts is what is causing this. Ugh... the abuse filter comes before even *that*? I've said here before that it should be the *final* step before an edit is saved... at the moment we get all manner of strange situations where the abuse filter is triggered where it should not be (esp. on edits that would have failed anyway, like rollbacks to non-top edits), of which this is only one.
Updated summary. (In reply to comment #2) > (In reply to comment #1) > > Looks like the automatic resolving of edit conflicts is what is causing this. > > Ugh... the abuse filter comes before even *that*? No, it comes after that. That's the problem.
(batch change) Minor bugs that nevertheless need looking into
Looking at the code and testing locally indicates that this is resolved with the current SVN version. Must have been unintentionally fixed at some point.
This was fixed by r52740, based on my testing. Would this be an expected side-effect of that change?
