Not only, I subscribe to this four paws. History and Edit has been implemented already and this should be as well, it has even more sense than Special:Edit which should be page parameter (&action=edit) not separate page.

Ah, I remember bug 11456 now. My comment at bug 11456 comment 13 is still very relevant.
Change 105629 abandoned by Jackmcbarn: Add Special:Purge Reason: A modified version of I612df6e33c74527c9a3a0af5a6c66cd977dc7344 is preferable to this solution. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/105629
Change 109523 had a related patch set uploaded by Legoktm: Create Special:Purge https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/109523
I don't think this is a good idea. We generally do not want people linking to ?action=purge. That's the reason why we have a click-through for anons, to discourage people from mass linking to it.

Change 109523 abandoned by Ebe123: Create Special:Purge Reason: The change is useless. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/109523
I'm not sure this is a valid enhancement request.
(In reply to comment #9) > Purge is a hack (cf. bug 54902). This. bug 54902 comment 4 by Brion sums it up pretty well I think. We shouldn't be further exposing the purge feature to users IMO.
