Description Jakub K 2012-02-28 22:04:29 UTC
If a page is moved to a diffrent namespace using redirect suppression it stays in the previous category filter (a page moved to user category is shown when you display main category and is not when you want new pages from user category).
Comment 2 Beau 2012-02-28 22:13:55 UTC
This cannot be easily implemented, so I suggest to display both new and old page titles, so user will not be confused with pages from other namespaces.

Something like this:
timestamp newTitle (hist) ‎[xx bytes] author (Talk | contribs | block) (summary) originally created as oldTitle
Comment 3 Rob Lanphier 2012-02-29 19:56:28 UTC
Roan and I discussed this.  Based on my understanding, the 1.19 behavior is better than the 1.18 behavior (i.e. this problem also existed in 1.18, but was masked by the bug that Roan fixed).

Taking off of highest priority.
Comment 4 bsitu 2012-03-02 20:59:28 UTC
fixed in -r112918 per Beau's recommendation
