The "revert" link for page moves produces a "no such target page" error message. It has been temporarily disabled on the English Wikipedia for that reason (see the above URL).
Note that this link is not part of the software, it is message customization by en.wikipedia in <Movepage-moved>. Original value: https://translatewiki.net/wiki/MediaWiki:Movepage-moved/en Custom value (before it was (temporarily) taken out due to a bug): https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Movepage-moved&action=edit&oldid=431525614 It uses the following wikitext to generate a link: [{{fullurl:Special:Movepage|wpOldTitle={{urlencode:$4}}&wpNewTitle={{urlencode:$3}}&wpReason=revert&wpMovetalk=1}} revert] As I've mentioned there [1], I don't think the error message is related to the revert-move link or this syntax in general or the new namespace selector. The following link syntax works fine, use this example for instance: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:MovePage&wpOldTitle=User:Krinkle/sandbox&wpNewTitle=Template_talk:Some_lovely_new_title&wpReason=revert&wpMovetalk=1 That works fine. -- Krinkle [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)&oldid=481432575#Revert_button_on_move_page_feature_doesn.27t_work
Leaning towards closure "WORKSFORME", can't reproduce this error. Could be that the parameters to that interface message have changed.
I've just tested[1] this on en.wikipedia as it worked fine locally. However the bug is still very much there. The link to revert it has raw urlencoded '$3' and '$4' in it, they are not being replaced as they should. Rephrasing bug summary to reflect the problem. -- Krinkle [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki%3AMovepage-moved&diff=481438639&oldid=479665276
Fixed in r113727.
