related to bug 1891. from url: Wikipedia recently upgraded to a new wiki software version, but there is a feature that I had hoped would be in it. Whenever you click on the history tab, there are several numbers at the bottom - 10, 20, 50, 100, 500, etc. that gives you the "results per page" feature. However, I really want a "last" and "first" feature - that is - I can hop right to the beginning of a page's history to see how it began as an article. That way, I don't have to press the "next 500" button over and over again to see the article's beginning. Hope this will be in the next version of the wiki software. — Stevey7788 (talk) 28 June 2005 20:19 (UTC)
Kate & Brion: isn't that duplicating http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1891 ?? " Skip to oldest version in page history - allow query string to point to the first (initial) revision"
my understanding of that bug is it retrieves the last _actual revision_ of a page. this doesn't give you the page, it takes you back in the history list.
