Description

Author: gareth.rees

Description:
In MediaWiki 1.4, when an administrator looks at the most recent diff for an article a rollback link
is presented allowing that edit to be quickly reverted. This link is not present in MediaWiki 1.5,
making some editing tasks more tedious (the relevant rollback URL can be constructed by hand or
found via other pages).

Please restore the rollback link to the most recent diff page.

(I guess this has something to do with the fact that the current revision of an article is no longer
easily identifiable by having no oldid.)

Version: 1.5.x
Severity: normal

The rollback link appears as normal when looking at diffs from My Watchlist but
not from Contribution or History.

Wikipedia. I have the same bug. Tested just now: difference from history: no
rollback (accessed via page or watchlist): no rollback. Difference directly from
watchlist: rollback is, ok - but I don't use diff since it hides older comments,
so I'd appreciate if it was restored on history. Tnx!

Fixed in DifferenceEngine.php, rev 1.69

Code was checking for oldid==0, which was not always the case.
