BUG MIGRATED FROM SOURCEFORGE http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=963319&group_id=34373&atid=411192 Originally submitted by Luc Van Oostenryck (looxix) 2004-05-31 01:44 Some of the pages given by Special:Newpages are not new at all (fr: equivalent of VfD for exemple). ------------------------- Additional comments ------------------------ Date: 2004-05-31 02:12 Sender: SF user vibber That page is in fact marked new, so it's not a problem in Newpages. I'm not sure _why_ it's marked new, though.

Could someone produce a testcase for this, if the bug is valid at all that is.
Created attachment 440 [details] Screenshot of a problem manifestation The problem might be connected with database lag. If, after saving a new page, the user gets the "there is no text on this page" text, goes back and saves again (and again...), there are multiple copies of the article in the database, and the edits are _all_ marked as new pages (see screenshot of todays RC on w:cs:). See also Bug #1209, #1239, and possibly others.
We now have a UNIQUE index on (cur_namespace, cur_title), thus it's no longer possible to have several entries in the DB for the same article. This should also solve the issue of multiple 'New' edits. Please reopen if these things still happen.
