'''[[Wikipedia:Requested moves#Request all associated moves explicitly|Procedural close]].''' The target page is a non-redirect that possesses substantial content.

Diffs and oldids

btw Sardanaphalus, how did you come up with the above URL that takes us directly to my edit, when the normal bare URL and the ((diff)) template take us to your previous edit, which has the same oldid number? I have raised this at Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)/Archive 131#Diff number. – Paine 
Okay, I see how one gets that URL – just by using the diff from the history page; however, it still does not explain why the two edits, yours and mine, have the same oldid number of 625450950. If "next" is used in the Diff template rather than "prev", then it takes us to my most recent edit, but use of "prev" take us to your previous edit. That seems to be the only difference – the oldid number is the same for both edits. Curiouser and curiouser, as Alice might quip. – Paine 
Either one or both of the &diff= and &oldid= parameters may be specified. Both can take numeric values, but when both are used together, &diff= also recognises certain keywords.
If &diff= is used alone, a specific revision is displayed, with a diff at the top which compares that revision with the previous revision.
If &oldid= is used alone, a specific revision is displayed, without a diff at the top.
If &diff= and &oldid= are used together (they may be given in either order), there are four ways of doing it.
When both are numeric, those two revisions are compared and the revision displayed below the diff is that specified by the &diff= parameter. The two revisions need not be consecutive, but the later revision number needs to be in the &diff= with the earlier one in &oldid= - if they are exchanged, a backwards comparison is made.
When both parameters are used together, the &diff= parameter doesn't need to be a revision number: there are three permitted keywords - prev, next and cur.
&diff=prev displays the revision specified by &oldid=, and the diff shown at the top is a comparison of that revision with the previous revision.
&diff=next displays the revision after the one specified by &oldid=, and the diff shown at the top is a comparison of those two consecutive revisions.
&diff=cur displays the current version; the diff shown at the top is a comparison of the current version with that specified by &oldid= - it can be any revision from the page history.
Since
and
are consecutive revisions of the same page, and 629082496 is the current version, this means that the following are all equivalent:
As soon as another edit is made to the page, that last one will become different from the others. --Redrose64 (talk) 23:46, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Once again, Redrose64, you make a complicated subject understandable; thank you very much for that! It appears that the bottom line is that in the future, I just have to be more careful with the terms in the Diff template. Joys! – Paine  03:53, 12 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
If you're using the ((diff)) template, this takes four parameters. The first one is the page name; the second and third correspond with the &diff= and &oldid= parameters as described above, except that they need to appear in that order; and the fourth is the link text. So the last four examples given above become
  • ((diff|Template:Testcases page header|629082496|625450950|Example 2))Example 2
  • ((diff|Template:Testcases page header|prev|629082496|Example 3))Example 3
  • ((diff|Template:Testcases page header|next|625450950|Example 4))Example 4

World's most populous urban areas[edit]

Ref.: Template:World's most populous urban areas
This is my most recent project to defeat Redirects that plague the template. See above. Left off at Hyderabad Hong Kong Bangalore Bogotá São Paulo Istanbul. (Mumbai has no coords!) (It's taking awhile, because I'm making other improvements to the articles as I see them needed, e.g. hatnotes to TOP, and converting dec coordinates to dms, and so on.) – Paine Ellsworth CLIMAX! 02:00, 19 November 2009 (UTC) –  Done[reply]
