Bug ID: 62071
Summary: Edit link inconsistencies on Foreign file pages -
doEditSectionLink incompatible with FileRepo
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: File management
Assignee: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org

Navigate to https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Apthorp_south_jeh.JPG
Now navigate to the same page via a ForeignAPI
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Apthorp_south_jeh.JPG
Notice that in the latter a broken VisualEditor link appears.
Expected: No VisualEditor link
Similarly if you go to the mobile site you will see the same problem - an edit
link appears in square brackets rather than an edit icon (see bug 61807). The
mobile skin uses doEditSectionLink which seems to be incompatible with
FileRepo.
I've spent the morning talking with Brion to understand more about how the
magic commons file page works and how the page is rendered.
Basically the problem is in FileRepo.php
getDescriptionRenderUrl creates an API request to something akin to
https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Image:Apthorp_south_jeh.JPG&action=render&uselang=en
If we can route this through the current skin this problem goes away.
e.g.
https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Image:Apthorp_south_jeh.JPG&action=render&uselang=en&useformat=mobile
or
https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Image:Apthorp_south_jeh.JPG&action=render&uselang=en&useskin=vector
Brion is taking a look to see if he can add a hook.
