Description lɛʁi לערי ריינהארט 2006-02-21 02:26:01 UTC
This is a counterpart for
Bug 2468: The code that generates the namespace form for 'Special:'
Contributions, Allpages and Recentchanges should be merged and reused for other
special pages with namespace filtering
Bug 5053: The code that generates the filter section for 'Special:'
Contributions, Recentchanges, Recentchangeslinked, Watchlist should be merged
and reused for other special pages with filter section
Comment 1 lɛʁi לערי ריינהארט 2006-02-21 02:48:32 UTC
from bug 4171 comment 2
b1) [[MediaWiki:Newpageletter]] is *not* shown in 'Special:Contributions'
b2) "Normaly" [[Special:Recentchanges]] does *not* generate a (diff) link for
from bug 4171 comment 3
d) consistent "#" *or* "*" should be used for all entries

This is neither the subject of bug 4171 nor of the bug 5052 splitted as a
separate bug.
Comment 2 Brion Vibber 2006-02-21 03:18:58 UTC
No damn clue what this means.
Comment 3 lɛʁi לערי ריינהארט 2006-02-21 06:34:31 UTC
This request is about minor details in the result lines of special pages:

Maybe this is more easy to understand:
c) [[Special:Recentchanges]] shows '(diff) (hist)' *but* 'Special:Contributions'
shows '(hist) (diff)' in reversed order

But let's look at / compare
http://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Recentchanges
21 February 2006
* (diff) (hist) . . m Wikipedia talk:Bugzilla/04171/user project main B; 01:58 .
. Gangleri (Talk | block) (purge)

http://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Gangleri
# 01:58, 21 February 2006 (hist) (diff) m Talk:04171/user project main C (purge)

I copied this in Firefox.
** d) I see a difference between "*" and "#"
** c) I see a difference between '(diff) (hist)' and '(hist) (diff)'
** bug 5052 I see different titles
** f) the links are generated in a different way
Special:Recentchanges
diff:
http://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Bugzilla/04171/user_project_main_B&curid=284&diff=815&oldid=813
hist:
http://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Bugzilla/04171/user_project_main_B&curid=284&action=history
Special:Contributions
hist:
http://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:04171/user_project_main_C&action=history
diff:
http://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:04171/user_project_main_C&diff=prev&oldid=815
** g) if the user would be a 'bot' there would be a difference according to bug 4054
** b) if the page would be a newly created page
*** b1) [[MediaWiki:Newpageletter]] is *not* shown in 'Special:Contributions'
*** b2) "Normaly" [[Special:Recentchanges]] does *not* generate a (diff) link for
new pages

It takes some time until newbies see all these minor details. I assume that a
common code that would render same events / lines in an "identical" fashion.
This would neither ruttle (verunsichern) newbies nor developers when verifying
their code.

Brion please REOPEN if you see any problem.

Is that not what ChangesList/ChangesRow do? You're asking for something we
already do.
