Bug ID: 60586
Summary: Special:NovaProject&action=addmember should treat
underscores in usernames as spaces
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: OpenStackManager
Assignee: rlan...@gmail.com
Reporter: t...@tim-landscheidt.de
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
MediaWiki uses underscores and spaces for user names pretty much
interchangeably. However, Special:NovaProject&action=addmember insists on
usernames with spaces. When you copy & paste the username from a URL it has
underscores and for rtl languages replacing it manually requires a lot of
patience :-) (cf.
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:NovaProject&action=addmember&projectname=tools&member=%D8%B9%D8%B1%D9%81%D8%A7%D9%86_%D8%A7%D8%B1%D8%B4%D8%AF).
So Special:NovaProject&action=addmember should transform any underscores to
spaces before using the username.
