Special:Recentchanges and Special:Newpages until someone "marks" them as
"patrolled" using a special link. For new pages, this link appears at the bottom
of the article if the link in Recent Changes or New Pages is followed. For all
other edits, this link appears only in the diff and only if the diff link is
followed from Recent Changes. (Might need to add this functionality to Watchlist
too; haven't done that yet.)

more predictable flow.

changes (bug #845036). User contributions and related changes now
ignore this preference.
Also, fixed a problem where the show/hide minor edits link wasn't
appearing on recent changes and related changes. Made sure that the
param gets passed through with all the links.
Made sure that user contributions also had a show/hide minor edits
thing, and that minor edits are flagged with the M (or whatever) in
user contributions.
