Hallo!
Some days before you could use ?oldid=nnnn / &oldid=nnnn with an *arbitrary*
title.
This has changed (today?).
There are scenarios where this is quite strange.
I created http://test.leuksman.com/view/Refer_by_oldid
as http://test.leuksman.com/index.php?title=Refer_by_oldid&oldid=9974
I moved the page to http://test.leuksman.com/view/Refer_by_oldid_moved
as http://test.leuksman.com/index.php?title=Refer_by_oldid_moved&oldid=9975
I deleted http://test.leuksman.com/view/Refer_by_oldid
What happens:
see
a) http://test.leuksman.com/index.php?title=Refer_by_oldid&oldid=9974
b) http://test.leuksman.com/index.php?title=oldid=9974
c) http://test.leuksman.com/index.php?title=Refer_by_oldid_moved&oldid=9974
Another scenario:
Namespaces get changed and the titles do not match any more.
This was irrelevant in the past. Not it is *not*.
Should we open a bug?
