Bug ID: 43301
Summary: No handling for when entering the same description for
an item whose label exists twice
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: WikidataRepo
Assignee: wikidata-b...@lists.wikimedia.org
Reporter: henning.sna...@wikimedia.de
CC: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org,

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
Prerequisites: Two items with the exact same label but different descriptions.
Change the description of one item to be the same as the other item's
description. The description appears to be saved but reloading the page reveals
it is not.
The API response does not return a "lastrevid" parameter. So, when changing one
of the descriptions to match the other one and instantly trying to change the
description again without reloading, a JavaScript error locking the page is
caused since the revision id is undefined.
Probably, the API should return an error that an item with the same combination
of label an description exists already or it should simply save the combination
(just like it is possible to create an item with a combination of label and
description that is already in use).
