Summary: Show move log when viewing/creating a deleted page
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: General/Unknown
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: church.of.emacs...@gmail.com
Since some time, the deletion log is displayed if you visit a deleted page or
create it. This is a very useful feature, however it does not help in two
cases:
(1) The page is moved and the administrator deletes the redirect without
including a link to the new page title in the deletion comment. The user sees
only a "unnecessary redirect after page move" in the deletion log (which
doesn't really help); only experienced users will visit Special:Log/<pagename>
as there is no link to the general log of the page.
(2) The page is moved with suppressredirect enabled. Then, there isn't even a
deletion log entry, thus no information provided for the user (who in most
cases searches the page). Again, the only option is to guess that the page was
moved and check the log.
Therefor I think that just like the deletion log, the move log should be
displayed as well.
