 Sorry for the unclear wording of the title: an example will be clearer, I hope.

I'll use  http://www.amara.org/en/videos/WsmSsSz680mu/pt-br/640588/ (Portuguese, Brazilian subtitles of the "DC SHOES: REDISCOVER HOME - FELIPE GUSTAVO - PART 1." video page).

OS: Mac OS X 10.6.8

Browsers: both Chrome 32.0.1700.77 and Firefox 26.0.

A) /#comments

I got an email notification that a comment had been added to these subtitles, with a link to http://www.amara.org/en/videos/WsmSsSz680mu/pt-br/640588/#comments in: "You can respond to this comment on the comments page."

• However,  http://www.amara.org/en/videos/WsmSsSz680mu/pt-br/640588/#comments  actually shows the content of http://www.amara.org/en/videos/WsmSsSz680mu/pt-br/640588/, not the Comments section. 
• The Comments button links to http://www.amara.org/en/videos/WsmSsSz680mu/pt-br/640588/?tab=comments, which works correctly in both browsers.

Same issue in the Activity subpart of the main page: in "arthurcdomingues commented on Portuguese, Brazilian subtitles for DC SHOES: REDISCOVER HOME - FELIPE ...", the link on Portuguese, Brazilian subtitles also uses the not-working http://www.amara.org/en/videos/WsmSsSz680mu/pt-br/640588/#comments sub-URL.

B) /#revisions

When comparing two revisions listed in the Revisions subpart (URL: http://www.amara.org/en/videos/WsmSsSz680mu/pt-br/640588/?tab=revisions)  of these subtitles, say comparing Revision #24 and Revision #25 in  http://www.amara.org/en/videos/diffing/941634/941605/,

• the navigation link Revision History has the http://www.amara.org/en/videos/WsmSsSz680mu/pt-br/640588/#revisions URL, but the browser shows the content of the http://www.amara.org/en/videos/WsmSsSz680mu/pt-br/640588/ page instead of the Revision subpage.
• trying to use the Back button of the browser does not take you to the Revisions subpart either, but to the formerly viewed page: i.e. if the Revisions subpart was initially opened from http://www.amara.org/en/videos/WsmSsSz680mu/pt-br/640588/, using the Back button in  http://www.amara.org/en/videos/diffing/941634/941605/ does not lead to the immediately preceding Revisions subpart, but to that
  

  http://www.amara.org/en/videos/WsmSsSz680mu/pt-br/640588/ page.

This impossibility to directly go back to the history of revisions from a comparison of two revisions -whether via the navigation link or via the Back button - is particularly inconvenient when trying to track something through various revisions: e.g. the content or a syncing issue of a given subtitle.

Therefore, could these URLs ending in "/#something" be abandoned, and replaced  by corresponding URLs ending in "?tab=something" in all links provided in the Amara site and in email alerts, please?
