The code that generates the namespace form for Special:Contributions, Special:Allpages and Special:Recentchanges should be merged, perhaps into HTMLForm.php?
Hallo Ævar! [[Special:Recentchanges]] allows many parameters. Nevertheless it is *not* possible (trough the user interface) to *first* select the parameters and make *only one* query as it is possible at http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/query.cgi?format=advanced which is designed for *advanced* users / contributors. However it should be possible to allow *alternative* usage by - individual links as the "hide" / "show" links in [[Special:Recentchanges]] - *one querry* searchas using selector boxes, check boxes buttons etc. - parametrization in url's - parameters supported at some of the mentioned pages as "hideOwn=0" / "hideOwn=1" should be available at appropriate special pages; it would not make sense at [[Special:Contributions]] - requests about other options from other bugs should be added; I have seen "Special:Recentchanges|reverse=1" working at Nuka-Wiki the 4th of May - [[Special:Imagelist]] allows searching for patterns; it will find [[Image:Sydney_at_night.jpg]] searching for "Sydney" - Having a "redirect indication" with same look and feel at these pages would make life easier. Special care should be taken about what MediaWiki messages is used: those from the content language or from the selected user interface. This is because users *and* sysops may use languages *other* then the content language. Example: "restored X revisions" is taken from the selected user interface by the sysop. Should all required changes / enhancements etc. be added to "Bug 2468 blocks:" ? Regards Reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]
*note* Until now [[special:Recentchangeslinked/foo]] does not provide namespace filters. Should Recentchangeslinked benefit from the merged code? For more differences see also Bug 4154: MediaWiki:Showhideminor not appropriate for both Special:Recentchanges and Special:Recentchangeslinked best regards reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]
bug 2930 comment 6 Bug 2930: The edit history is wrong: It is based on timestamps while diff and direction is based on revision id's same sort criteria (timestamp, page_id) should be used for history/diff, Special:Contributions/foo, Special:Recentchanges, special:Recentchangeslinked/foo
Please stop smashing irrelevant crap all over every bug report for no reason.
(In reply to comment #4) > Please stop smashing irrelevant crap all over every bug report for no reason. Sorry Brion! I did realise today that the summary of this request is only about *namespace form*. Opened two counterparts for this bug: Bug 5053: The code that generates the filter section for 'Special:' Contributions, Recentchanges, Recentchangeslinked, Watchlist should be merged and reused for other special pages with filter section and Bug 5054: The code that generates the linewise result section for 'Special:' Contributions, Recentchanges, Recentchangeslinked, Watchlist should be merged and reused for other special pages with linewise result section Will remove bogus dependencies. best regards reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]
*cough* HtmlNamespaceSelector() *cough* Resolving FIXED.
