Description Jan-Paul Köster 2005-06-30 00:15:37 UTC 
Subpages have a useful backlink at the top of subpages (for example,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_article_candidates/Buckingham_Palace/Archive_1
has links at the top back to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_article_candidates/Buckingham_Palace
and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_article_candidates).  

This kind of backlink used to appear in page diffs (e.g.
[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Featured_article_candidates/Buckingham_Palace&diff=17777130&oldid=17755927])
before the upgrade but they are not there any longer.  I'm using the classic
skin, IE6, WinXP.

Comment 3 Jan-Paul Köster 2005-06-30 01:44:12 UTC 
This bug is not about article sections, it is about backlinks on subpages.
Compare the following:

http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Benutzer%3AJpkoester1%2FVorlagen&diff=0&oldid=6726547
Note the backlink to "Benuter:Jpkoester1" right below the heading
"Benutzer:Jpkoester1/Vorlagen"

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3AJpkoester1%2FVorlagen&diff=17866844&oldid=17866822
Note that the backlink is missing in the diff on the en-wp where it sais "From
Wikipedia"
Comment 4 Brion Vibber 2005-06-30 06:16:08 UTC 
Fixed, returned to behavior in 1.4. A statement had been left out of the 
rewritten loader function in DifferenceEngine.
