When multiple recent changes are from the same user, the broom redirects to the history page #143

I get the idea behind this (that there maybe multiple problematic edits worth looking) but redirecting to the history page might confuse users about why they get here and what they're supposed to do. Suggest changing the redirect to a diff page containing all consecutive edits from the same user. e.g. this link that shows 5 last edits by the same user. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=932771387&oldid=920400376&title=Zoilo_Canavery&type=revision This link is easier to review (because the diff is presented immediately) and more actionable (the reviewer can click the "undo" link to revert all if they think it's appropriate).

This is intentional due to #57, I agree with you that this is confusing, we shall find better way to handle it. Maybe

  1. do not redirect / do not conduct reverts.
  2. give users some hints for what to do when going to the history page.

How about linking to a diff page that contains all the consecutive edits, like https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=932771387&oldid=920400376&title=Zoilo_Canavery&type=revision ?
