Summary: Redirect Fixer moved an unrelated page
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.15.2
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: Normal
Component: Redirects
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: mediaw...@blazemonger.com
The Redirect Fixer modified a completely unrelated article for no reason we can
understand.
Here is the situation:
1. Article "Blackberry" exists
2. Redirect "Blackberry tip" points to "Blackberry"
3. A user moves "Blackberry" to "BlackBerry" with a capital "B".
4. The Redirect Fixer updates "Blackberry tip" to point to "BlackBerry". This
is correct.
5. [BUG!] Immediately after, the Redirect Fixer also modifies a completely
unrelated article, "Changing user information in QuickBase", turning it into a
redirect pointing to "BlackBerry". This original article was not even a
redirect!
I have never seen this behavior before. Any ideas?
