When using a URL like http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Main_Page&action=edit&useskin=chick , the &useskin= parameter is lost if the user uses the "Show changes" or "Show preview" buttons. This shouldn't happen.

| Open | Feature | None | T326058 Continue using skin if &useskin= is set | ||
| Duplicate | Feature | None | T24029 useskin URL parameter should persist through "show changes" / "show preview" |
The user story here is really, "I want to be able to specify a skin when previewing changes so that I can make sure the changes are compatible with different skins before publishing the change", making this "persist" is a proposed technical solution, but any solution to that story should work.
