           Summary: <pages> tag from ProofreadPage extension broken on
                    enwikisource since 1.17 upgrade
           Product: Wikimedia
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: Normal
         Component: General/Unknown
        AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
        ReportedBy: adr...@adrianfrith.com


Since today's upgrade to 1.17, the <pages> tag[1] from the Proofread Page
extension[2] has been partly broken. The "fromsection" and "tosection"
parameters to that tag[3] are supposed to ensure that only specfic labelled
sections are transcluded from the first and last pages (respectively) in the
range of pages transcluded. (These are "sections" as defined by Labelled
Section Transclusion.[4])

For concrete examples see [5,6]; in each case the end of the previous article
and the beginning of the next article are included because the whole page is
being transcluded rather than only the labelled sections specified.

This definitely only started happening today. It is a show-stopper bug for
Wikisource, affecting as it does probably thousands, and certainly many
hundreds, of works.
