             Bug #: 35022
           Summary: rel=canonical is implemented incorrectly
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Redirects
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---


Our rel=canonical code seams to be implemented incorrectly.

No rel=canonical on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redirection
But a rel=canonical on
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Redirection&redirect=no

rel=canonical is supposed to canonicalize
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redirection to the page it points to
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redirect

The rel=canonical on the redirect=no is rubbish, the content displayed at that
url is not the article and hence the canonical version is NOT the article being
redirected to.
