Description Church of emacs 2008-11-22 17:19:34 UTC 
I was thinking that maybe it'd be a good idea to include the oldid to the page when printable=yes. The following text is displayed at the bottom:

Retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page"

It should be easy to include the permalink (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page?oldid=xxxxxx)

cf bug 16659 -- making permalinks prettier and easier to read in print version :D

Comment 3 René Kijewski 2009-08-06 23:41:39 UTC 
Even without "pretty" revision links it would still be possible to have a permalink, if there would be two links on the bottom of the printable version, like:
* http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page
* http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=4711

I think it would be good enough, since /wiki/somethink correctly displays Unicode characters, and having one question mark in the URL is not too difficult to read.

Fixed per suggestion of the OP: r95655.
Prettier permalinks are bug 16659.
