Summary: Make some URLs shorter, maybe per user preferences.
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: General/Unknown
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
1. There is a set of gadgets reducing unneccessarily lengthy URLs, see e.g.
http://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-ShortDiff.js
http://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-ShortLink.js
2. Maybe, the longer versinos of these URLs are more instructive, or
more readable for humans, and thus should be preserved.
3. Using JavaScripts to do URL cosmetic and such is both
inefficient and uneconomic.
Solution:
Either use URLs as short as possible anyways, or make URL
style selectable via user preferences, and/or a global setting.
