Summary: Prettify permalinks
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: General/Unknown
AssignedTo: [email protected]

Our current permalinks are kinda ugly...
Particularly for non-ASCII bits the title portion of a link can be hugely ugly
(all URL encoded) and hard to type in by hand, making a clean ID-based
permalink easier to use from print.
eg from:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&oldid=251850832
->
http://en.wikipedia.org/revision/251850832
or:
http://hi.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%E0%A4%B8%E0%A5%82%E0%A4%B0%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%AF%E0%A4%B5%E0%A4%82%E0%A4%B6%E0%A5%80_(1992_%E0%A4%AB%E0%A4%BC%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%B2%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%AE)&oldid=188492
->
http://hi.wikipedia.org/revision/188492
(A $wgActionPaths entry or similar can provide the exact path, as long as we've
got some shorter way to do this standard.)
cf bug 16428 asking to put permalinks in the print version footer.
