Next and previous revision links hidden on old-revision view of redirect text
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Author: hirsch.heisseich

Description:
If you go in an article which once was a redirect page, for example this oldid
http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ziegenpeter&oldid=762757, on top of
the page you are able to follow the revisions (Older revision | Newer revision).
But if someone has made a redirect, the revision links (inlusive the date)
disappear.
If you click on the ’Newer revision’ link in my example you are on a redirect page.
It is a dead end. Instead of the revision links there is the text: ’Redirect
page’. You can not move back- or forward. As you can see in the history the
redirect is not the actual page:
http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ziegenpeter&action=history...
Is it possible to include the regular revision navigation on top instead of the
'redirect' word?
Thanks

Hallo baumanns!

Confirming that no navigation links are available at
http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ziegenpeter&direction=prev&oldid=762757
despite the fact that
http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ziegenpeter&action=history
is very long.

There are some discussions about rendering a redirect as a normal page at
Bug 927: Text in the same line as #redirect not rendered, except for category tags
This would probably also fix the problem with the navigation links.

best regards reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]

P.S. The "Component" of this bug relates both to "Redirects" *and* to
"History/Diffs". The actual Bugzilla version does not support this.

*trivial note*
The code for "diff" is not identical with the code for "direction" /
"direction=prev" regarding the rendering of redirects

http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ziegenpeter&diff=762703&oldid=762757
(is a "reversed" redirect where value of diff < value of oldid)

The only rendering issue is addressed in
