Fix rev parent id for some specific revisions

  • Problem: While revisions with parent ID problems exist on any Wikimedia wiki, there is at least one page on Wikiquote that has two different problems, namely Amitabh Bachchan, that we should try fixing first before worrying about other cases. The first problem is with the edits that were deleted in April 2005, while the second one is with the interleaving edits from 2014 and 2015.
  • Who would benefit:
  • Proposed solution: Fix rev_parent_id for the following edits to the page Amitabh Bachchan on Wikiquote:
