Internally Linking to a history page?

I have a page in my company mediawiki which is automatically generated whenever external tasks complete. I want to insert a Template:Page and present the contents as a link to the history of that page, but I can't see how to do [[Template:page?action=history|{{page}}]] Any ideas?

This is not a help page to answer such questions, that is more for mediawiki.org. It would also seem that you should be looking at mw:Help:Magic words  — billinghurst sDrewth 11:46, 20 October 2018 (UTC)

Asterisk

One (often the latest) edit on the page history may be marked with an asterisk (example: https://www.prepaid-wiki.de/wiki/index.php?title=Callmobile&action=history). This help page should explain what it means. --Patagonier (talk) 22:54, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

Group same users' successive edits

It would be nice if it could be possible to group same users' successive edits to avoid cluttering. It would also be nice to select and undo sets of edit because currently it is really time-consuming to undo successive vandalisms even if from the same user, in particular on Wikidata. It is even difficult to find them actually. Example

Semi-protected edit request on 21 July 2020

Please change "last" to "prev" ...

"5.(last) takes you to a diff page showing the changes between that edit and the previous version"

should be

"5. (prev) takes you to a diff page showing the changes between that edit and the previous version

Done Thanks Tlgonline for the suggestion.  — billinghurst sDrewth 01:18, 22 July 2020 (UTC)

why is the page semi protected?

I need to edit one page and I don't know why it's protected, it wasn't like that when I left, and why does it expire until next year? This makes no sense, I ask your permission to let me edit a page please, it seems like you are writing nonsense and opinions fans, as if it were a fan service. How come they allow them to edit? I saw they edited them since yesterday, on July 4, if it is protected. Claun11342 (talk) 17:45, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
