I was crafting a Twinkle module for zhwiki to close AfD requests: delete the page and close the discussion in that day's log. However doing the latter always results in edit conflict, and the edit did not came through. I'm sure the page is not actually in conflict (tried with multiple pages under that prefix). Chrome's inspect element gives: 0) action: delete ... 1) action: query prop: info|revisions intoken: edit titles: Wikipedia:頁面存廢討論/記錄/2013/11/20 rvprop: content rvsection: 7 inprop: protection format: xml Response: <?xml version="1.0"?><api><query><pages><page pageid="3726834" ns="4" title="Wikipedia:頁面存廢討論/記錄/2013/11/20" contentmodel="wikitext" pagelanguage="zh" touched="2013-11-28T11:32:18Z" lastrevid="29346485" counter="" length="23624" starttimestamp="2013-11-28T11:32:19Z" edittoken="ff2debd7771781fe58906b44f4deabdc+\"><protection /><revisions><rev contentformat="text/x-wiki" contentmodel="wikitext" xml:space="preserve">====[[史帕克]]==== {{Findsources|史帕克}} *{{vd}} 缺乏關注度。--[[User talk:SiuMai|Qui cherche trouve]] 2013年11月26日 (二) 02:45 (UTC)</rev></revisions></page></pages></query></api> 2) action: edit title: Wikipedia:頁面存廢討論/記錄/2013/11/20 summary: /* 史帕克 */ 删除 ([[WP:TW|TW]]) watchlist: nochange section: 7 notminor: true text: ====[[史帕克]]==== {{delh|d}} {{Findsources|史帕克}} *{{vd}} 缺乏關注度。--[[User talk:SiuMai|Qui cherche trouve]] 2013年11月26日 (二) 02:45 (UTC) ---- : 删除。--~~~~ {{delf}} basetimestamp: 2013-11-28T11:32:18Z starttimestamp: 2013-11-28T11:32:19Z nocreate: format: xml token: ff2debd7771781fe58906b44f4deabdc+\ Response: <?xml version="1.0"?><api servedby="mw1120"><error code="editconflict" info="Edit conflict detected" /></api> Retry with basetimestamp removed would let the edit go through, but changing that date to tomorrow won't. Purging also does nothing. When pasting the exact text in index.php it would go through normally. Please kindly advise if I had screwed anything up. Thanks.
You need to specify a correct value for basetimestamp. Include timestamp in rvprop and use the timestamp of the revision as your value for basetimestamp.
