== Handle full URLs passed as pages to be edited ==
 
At [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Gauhar_Khan&diff=584587005&oldid=584469730], a full URL was given as a page to edit instead of just a page name. Would it be simple to make this change the URL back into a page name, or otherwise handle it? Currently, it leads to things like [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:AnomieBOT/SPERTable&oldid=584592000] happening, which isn't very pretty or accurate. {{ping|Mr. Stradivarius}} ping.

:It's very rare, and we can't guard against every mistake - somebody will always do something unexpected. Just fix it when it happens, which I see was done (but there's still a whole slew of empty {{tag|ref|content=}} causing a sea of red). --[[User:Redrose64|<span style="color:#a80000; background:#ffeeee; text-decoration:inherit">Red</span>rose64]] ([[User talk:Redrose64|talk]]) 23:18, 4 December 2013 (UTC)
