Description lɛʁi לערי ריינהארט 2006-04-16 14:14:14 UTC
Hallo!

There have been several reports about impacts on vandalism on
[[Special:Watchlist/edit]].

You visit the site look at 'Special:Watchlist/edit' and will find offending
titles or nonsense titles. This probably depends on the way page moves have been
reverted.

*example*
I have the red
[[wikt:58u639586759th5htu45hfg7yd7yg7345762793748972384h3tuihuhg795y]] on my
watchlist as an action of [[wikt:user:Todo el mundo]] (see below).

I went to
http://en.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=move&user=&page=58u639586759th5htu45hfg7yd7yg7345762793748972384h3tuihuhg795y
and could see that the *counterpart* exists
http://en.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=move&user=&page=58u639586759th5htu45hfg7yd7yg7345762793748972384h3tuihuhg795y

This requires two searches and knowledge of this 'trick'.

*request*
Plase add 'source' 'target' and 'source or target' selections for
[[special:Log/move]]. I assume that radio buttons would be more intuitive then a
selector box.

*improuvements*
a) 'Special:Watchlist/edit' If most users have to perform the same steps as
going to 'special:Log/move' with parameter 'nonsenseE' when they see such a red
link it would be nice to have that link available in 'Special:Watchlist/edit'.

b) If most users have to perform the same steps as
watch A, unwatch B it would be nice to have the links available in
'special:Log/move'.
They probably whatched A (the 'first' source seen chronologically) before and
like to unwatch B (the 'first' target seen chronologically) which is probably
the result of vandalism.

best regards reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]

I have no clue what this is supposed to mean. The various paragraphs
have little or no apparent relation to each other.
