Description Jon Harald Søby 2011-10-29 17:49:40 UTC
I don't know if this is worth fixing, but it's something to be aware of.

When turning on enhanced RecentChanges, the newest revision in a group links to the diff to "cur", even if there is no newer revision. The latest revision should probably not have a clickable "cur" link.

Example of diff linked to: https://no.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Brukerdiskusjon:Blue_Elf&curid=75880&diff=0&oldid=9559905
Comment 1 Aaron Schulz 2011-10-30 00:43:11 UTC
We don't usually JOIN on the page table for these queries, so it's hard to know if a change is the latest. You could assume that the top one in the group is, but that would fail if ChangesList is used on a time range like [timestamp A, timestamp B before the present].
Comment 2 Jon Harald Søby 2011-10-30 02:44:05 UTC
I know what you mean; it would be hard to determine if there have been more recent changes (since recent changes/watchlist is divided by day, a page that is edited the next day would show up as a separate group).

Anyways, the example I linked to is no longer valid since there have actually been more recent changes. This link should hopefully be the same for a longer time: https://no.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mal:Valg_i_Tanzania&curid=974969&diff=0&oldid=9556518
