Description Bright Soo 2009-12-02 06:45:49 UTC
1. An overall description of the bug

When viewing the history page at the URL above, clicking on "500" results in a list of 500 changes, with no "Older" link available, even though older revisions exist.

   2. Steps to reproduce

When logged in (as Bsoo), going to the history page lists 500 results immediately due to my account setting.  There is no "Older" link.  Clicking on the oldest entry (bottom of list),
  http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Orbital_resonance&oldid=271925
reveals a clickable "← Previous revision" link, i.e. yet older revisions exist.  Note that when logged in I am in Wikipedia Beta.

When logged off, steps to reproduce bug is same, except user would click on "500" first.  When I tested this, I am NOT in Wikipedia Beta.

   3. Expected result

One would expect to see "Older" links available.

   4. Actual result

No "Older" links.  Page displayed as if it contained the entire history (it didn't).

   5. Additional information

None.

Forgot to add that I tested this in IE7 also.
Comment 2 P.Copp 2009-12-02 14:34:20 UTC
There aren't more revisions. The bug is that edit history is sorted by timestamp whereas the order when viewing diffs is determined by revision id.
