It's possible that I do something wrong but it should still not return a server error. Also it's quite unintuitive that action=delete deletes all revisions but action=undelete with timestamps provided only restores text revisions.

This is currently blocking writing a semi-automated revision splitting script to clean up the mess UploadWizard (Bug 40304, Bug 54750) created.

(In reply to Rainer Rillke @commons.wikimedia from comment #1)

Also it's quite unintuitive that action=delete deletes all
revisions but action=undelete with timestamps provided only restores text
revisions.

That makes sense to me, since it parallels action=delete and Special:Undelete in the web UI.

The real problem is bug 40817: there's no way to undelete files at all.

Change 146482 merged by jenkins-bot:
RevDelArchivedFileItem needs to override getApiData

This should be deployed to WMF wikis with 1.24wmf14, see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.24/Roadmap for the schedule.
