Description Nemo 2014-08-07 22:15:01 UTC

1) https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:PagePreparation
2) Enter Help:Images and press the button

I. Expected: something happens.
II. Observed: maybe something is happening, but there is no loading indicator or anything. The only thing changing is the URL, https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:PagePreparation?title=Help%3AImages

Comment 1 Pratik Lahoti 2014-08-08 05:19:17 UTC

It is because after preparing, the rvdifftotext parameter becomes too large and we get a 414 error: 414 Request-URI Too Large

Can't even shorten the URL, so here's a paste of it: http://pastebin.com/RFNFRw5m

Comment 2 Pratik Lahoti 2014-08-08 05:40:46 UTC

Changing api.get(...) to api.post(...) should fix this problem. Tried it over here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:BPositive/getPageContent.js

Comment 5 Nemo 2014-08-11 17:12:05 UTC

Let's assume this fixed; but we'll need retesting of this and the rest.
