Try the URL in the bug, see this error. Before we had Topic:Rylnpvcpshj9n30s , links to topics and actions on topics were of the form Talk:<boardname>?workflow=<topic UUID>(&other params...). The Permalink action item generated these links, so there are numerous old posts and bugs with these URLs. They should redirect (301 Moved Permanently?) to the improved URL, ideally preserving other query string parameters and the fragment See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Flow/Architecture/URLs#Sample_Flow_URLs

All patches mentioned in this report were merged - is there more work left to do here (if yes: please reset the bug report status to NEW or ASSIGNED), or can you close this ticket as RESOLVED FIXED?
The patch was merged so the Fatal exception is gone and you're redirected, though poorly. (In reply to spage from comment #0) > They should redirect (301 Moved > Permanently?) to the improved URL, ideally preserving other query string > parameters and the fragment The other query string parameters are lost, so I filed new bug 68339
