This makes it extremely hard to restore original signatures after spam attack.

Gerrit change #49695
Maybe we should do bug 24970 instead...
(In reply to comment #5) > Maybe we should do bug 24970 instead... Good catch, that bug was very unclear... The non-duped part of it is not useful, this on the other hand is an actual bug because it makes vandalism out of control: translatewiki.net had to disable thread editing completely for unprivileged users because of it, AFAICS.
Merged by Siebrand.
Hm, the signature change is logged but it still didn't work very well here: https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Thread:Project:Current_issues/Flow_is_down%3F&lqt_method=thread_history I wonder if we should add this log to user contributions so that patrollers see the changes when they check a user (bug 22711?): https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Nutty151 https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Log/Nutty151 Or they could at least be added in the table at the top of &lqt_method=thread_history , is there a bug for that?
