Flow "X changes" link in watchlists is broken/useless (Enhanced RC + Extended Watchlist)
Open, LowPublic

Description

At https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Watchlist I currently see:


! 15:29 	Talk:Flow‎‎ (4 changes | history) . . (0)‎ . . [MZMcBride‎; Skalman‎ (3×)]
! 	15:29 . . (0)‎ . . Skalman (talk | contribs | block)

! 	02:10 . . (0)‎ . . Skalman (talk | contribs | block)
! 	01:57 . . (0)‎ . . Skalman (talk | contribs | block)

Clicking "4 changes" leads to https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Flow&curid=0&diff=0&oldid=0. This is bad.

What gadget/pref do you have enabled on mw.org that shows you this rollup? My vanilla watchlist doesn't do this :)

What gadget/pref do you have enabled on mw.org that shows you this rollup? My
vanilla watchlist doesn't do this :)

In https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-watchlist
select "Expand watchlist to show all changes, not just the most recent"
Then in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rc
select "Group changes by page in recent changes and watchlist"

For added magic, we can automatically expand each of the groupings (normally one has to click the triangle icons), with
https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=User:Quiddity/common.js&oldid=786145

This works on all wikis, not just mw.org

With only one change, the “diff” link seems to be broken (curid=0&oldid=0). Besides (related?), the number of byte added is false (not the same indicated in History page which is more credible).

Extract of my watch list:

! 10:48 Topic title on Wikipedia Talk:Discussions structurées (diff | hist) . . +43‎ . . Ktokolvek (talk | contribs)

If you click on “hist” link, you’ll see a +117 change at 10:48 (whereas it’s written +43 on my watch list). I’ve no idea where that “+43” comes from.
