New histmerge list
Hi Mikaey, I know you're busy, but could you perhaps create one more iteration of the new histmerge list at some point? Bug 20757, which caused over a million revisions from early 2005 to appear blank, has been fixed for the English Wikipedia. This bug affected the bot, because it generated some weird diffs at pages such as Eurydice and Koniuchy massacre, and such diffs might confuse people who work on the backlog in the future. I've been obsessed with my new-found ability to import pages, especially from the Nostalgia Wikipedia, so I haven't done much work on the histmerge list lately, but I'll be back there some time.

- I'll see if I can dig out the machine that I use to run it. I've been stalling because (a) I moved recently, (b) I've been wanting to make some changes to the code (so that it can cache some of the results and make subsequent runs faster), and (c) I'm just plain lazy. I'll probably turn the diff threshold down to 15% though, just to cut down on the raw number of results we get. Mikaey, Devil's advocate 02:43, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
