Strange Edit After Page Move
this looks weird. The middle edit is '-1' but nothing changes. John Vandenberg (chat) 02:36, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
- There are three '-1' edits so I'm unsure which edit you refer to. Is it where a space was removed after "residence they shared"? PrimeHunter (talk) 02:48, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

- Sorry, I was referring to the, now deleted, edit by SilverFox183 (talk ยท contribs). There were only three edits: 1) the page move to include '2012' prefix, SilverFox183's edit, followed by a bot and I didnt inspect that edit. It's probably hard to debug now that the page has been moved back over the redirect, but the 'diff' omitted the diff section, similar to how it appears for moves and protection actions.

- If I compare and (admin only links) then the second apparently removed an extra newline at the end. That explains '-1' but raises another question: How could the first have en extra newline at the end? I thought it would be stripped on saving. I can no longer see a diff but maybe the diff ignored the extra newline or whatever it was. PrimeHunter (talk) 05:20, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

Famous quotes containing the words strange, edit, page and/or move:
“It is a strange, strange fate, and now, as I stand face to face with death I feel just as if they were going to kill a boy. For I feel like a boy—and my hands so free from blood and my heart always so compassionate and pitiful that I cannot comprehend how anyone wants to hang me.”
—Roger Casement (1864–1916)
“To a philosopher all news, as it is called, is gossip, and they who edit it and read it are old women over their tea.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I asked myself, “Is it going to prevent me from getting out of here? Is there a risk of death attached to it? Is it permanently disabling? Is it permanently disfiguring? Lastly, is it excruciating?” If it doesn’t fit one of those five categories, then it isn’t important.”
—Rhonda Cornum, United States Army Major. As quoted in Newsweek magazine, “Perspectives” page (July 13, 1992)
“Adolescence is a time when children are supposed to move away from parents who are holding firm and protective behind them. When the parents disconnect, the children have no base to move away from or return to. They aren’t ready to face the world alone. With divorce, adolescents feel abandoned, and they are outraged at that abandonment. They are angry at both parents for letting them down. Often they feel that their parents broke the rules and so now they can too.”
—Mary Pipher (20th century)
