Description Emir Beganović 2007-04-29 19:12:04 UTC
Please disable showing of redirects on Special:Fewestrevisions page, because
they're mostly not needed on that page.

Do not show redirects

This patch exludes redirects from the list. But I cannot estimate if this will
melt the servers although on WMF wikis it's cached special page.

Note: Only redirects with more than 1 revision are shown at the moment.

Mark pages as redirect

This alternative patch marks pages as redirect. Same restrictions (melting
servers?).

Done in r37318.

There are cached special pages that do a lot worse things than that
