             Bug #: 34848
           Summary: Improve mediawiki.special.movePage.js to remove the
                    namespace name when the user paste the full target
                    name in the field
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.19
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: javascript
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Special pages
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---


Previous to r10209, a user could
1) Copy/paste the full name of the target page to the field
2) Move the page

Now, this requires two extra steps:
1) Copy/paste the full name of the target page to the field
2) Select the namespace part
3) Delete it
4) Move the page

E.g.:
On [[Special:MovePage/Help:Moving]] we could paste "Help:Moving articles" and
it would work. Currently we need to split the title parts like this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MovePage/Help:Moving?wpNewTitle=Help:Moving_articles
and then move.

I believe a small JS code could split the name when the user paste it in that
field, and automatically select the appropriated namespace.
