Description

This is about MinervaNeue on desktop, not the mobile view. When I click on the history button, I would like to be able to see the traditional advanced desktop history view, not the mobile history view. But I get taken to the mobile history view. Either Special:History/page should be converted to page?action=history or the history button should point at the desktop history view.

The desktop Minerva site does show the traditional history page, it's just skinned differently:
https://en.wikipedia.org/?useskin=minerva&useformat=desktop&action=history

You shouldn't be able to get to https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:History/Main_Page&useskin=minerva without following a link. To revert back to the normal history page, you can click "mobile view" and then "desktop view".

We will be merging these pages as part of https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T210168 so closing as duplicate.
