When viewing a diff via a URL which only contain the diff number, the resulting page link to the main page rather than the page for which the diff occurred in.
This doesn't happen if both "diff" and "oldid" are present in the URL; this only happens when only "diff" is given and "diffonly" is set to "yes".
It looks like when the "oldid" value is not present, the default value of 0 is used, which falls back to Main Page. The diff itself works correctly because in DifferenceEngine.php we have: elseif ( $this->mOldid === 0 ) { $rev = $this->mNewRev->getPrevious(); if( $rev ) { $this->mOldid = $rev->getId(); So the oldid used for the diff is corrected, but that being used to create the content_actions is equal to zero. I couldn't find where exactly this oldid is being used to create the content_actions link relating to the page itself; once it is located, using an approach similar to what I posted above can solve the bug.

This does happen even when diffonly is not set. The casuse is when oldid is not set.
