It normalize every URL of same diff link on history, watchlist, contributions, recent changes and diff page.

The advantages to a single URL is as follows.

  1. In the browser, visited links will work.
  2. Cache may work well.

I am glad if you could consider the proposal.

It normalize every URL of same diff link on history, watchlist, contributions,
recent changes and diff page.

For those of us who are ignorant and too lazy to look: how would normalization change the URLs?

That is, could you provide an example of a URL the same resource presented two different ways?

Thank you. This exactly what I wanted.

After looking at this for a while, I'm still not sure I understand the request. Given that the task is also 8 years old, I'm going to resolve it, but if you are following this task and would like to see something done with it, please re-open and add more specific steps to the description.

@kostajh I have changed the status to "Declined" (it could have also possibly be "Stalled" but that implies being open). I got lured in here hoping that something has been positively done in this respect - but it wasn't; therefore I suggest to leave it as "Declined" until it is re-opened again.
