I've just created three new pages on the wiki, each detailing the differences between versions of a game. Note that for "SonicTheHedgehog2-SMS" and "Paperboy-SMS", the page creation shows up here.

However, for "Flicky-SG", the only page which I created and then edited shortly after, only the edit appears.

"All Recent Changes" does not show the initial creation of the page. Is this a bug?

Note also that the summary for my change to the "WonderBoyInMonsterWorld-SMS" page does not show up correctly. It should appear the same as it does here.

I think it's showing only the last change related to a page.

Thanks, that makes sense.

The second issue seems to have been caused by my use of "$00" (or maybe just "$") in the summary. I knew I should have written "0x00" :)

Recent changes pages merge sequential edits to the same page. I may change this as it is confusing (although it does hide it when I make 10 mistakes in a row...). I have a habit to repeat my initial comment on typo-fixes.

It ought to be a bit safer with escaping. The thing to do is to check what happens at PmWiki.org - I just did and it is a core bug, so I filed a bug report.

There does seem to be something funny with the page history not showing the initial page addition, which I need to look into.
