Description Dejan Papež 2009-09-26 11:40:48 UTC Writing the following edit summary "added [[Category:Slovenian orientalists]]" displays in the page revision history as "added " instead of what has been written originally. The link to category should be provided too even without using the colon before 'Category' (i.e. [[:Category:Slovenian orientalists]]). Comment 1 Alexandre Emsenhuber [IAlex] 2009-09-26 18:19:38 UTC Can you provide a link to a page containing this problem? I'm not able to reproduce it: http://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Cat&action=history Comment 2 Dejan Papež 2009-09-29 06:37:21 UTC This page: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Portal:Slovenia/New_article_announcements&diff=316288781&oldid=316149345 Comment 3 Alexandre Emsenhuber [IAlex] 2009-10-01 15:43:03 UTC That's because you entred "/* New categories */ +" as summary (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=revisions&revids=316288781&rvprop=comment and compare it to http://test.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=revisions&revids=77853&rvprop=comment for http://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Cat&diff=77853&oldid=77845)
