Bug #: 35293
Summary: apostrophe in url
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: History/Diffs
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
An apostrophe (single quote) in url can be either a single letter ' or three
letters %27. They should be equivalent, but the following two urls point to two
different versions of the same page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C3%B6nig%27s_theorem_(graph_theory)#Proof
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C3%B6nig's_theorem_(graph_theory)#Proof
The first url points (correctly) to the most updated version. The second url
points (incorrectly) to an older version. Open two windows and compare, in
particular, the section "Proof".
Google "Konig's theorem", and you will see the first hit gives the url with a
single letter ' for the apostrophe. If you follow the second google hit instead
and choose "(graph theory)" from the Wikipedia disambiguation page, you will
get the url with the three letters %27 for the apostrophe.
