--- Comment #7 from Sage Ross <[email protected]> 2009-03-17 16:22:51 UTC --- (In reply to comment #5) > why shouldn't Image redirects behave like Template redirects? > Because Image/File redirects (especially on Commons) are used to create language-specific descriptive file names for use on other wikis, and because images produce mouse-over text of the file name. If a given wiki is intentionally using a redirect file name rather than the original, then they would benefit from have the mouse-over text be that of the redirect, and also from being able to click on an image and know from the image page what the markup was (e.g., so that the image may be removed). See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Ragesoss/Image_redirect_bug for an example. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
