After a user created a Thread[1] and then removed it's content and inserted it in the Thread's summary, I wanted to merge the new content back to the history of Thread's page and for this, I've used [[Especial:MovePage]], whithout leaving a redirect behind, and deleting the existing Thread page when I was asked (so that I could restore it and merge the history of both pages, as described in [[Wikipedia:How to fix cut-and-paste moves]]). The problem is: when I went to the Thread page (following the link from "successful move" message), it showed the message ---- *No such thread* The thread you specified does not exist. ---- instead of the content which was previously in the summary page. This should not happen. Nevertheless, going to the history of the non existent Thread, I could see the message ---- View or restore 2 deleted edits? ---- (together with the previous one), and so I was able to restore the page. After restoring the deleted edits, the history[5] is ok, showing all edits (both from Thread and it's summary).

Another problem: now the Thread shows a summary [1], even if there is no summary at all [2]. Also, I haven't found any way of blanking that summary, since it's edit button points to the Thread itself [3].
