Bug #: 36033
Summary: Interwiki language links to non-existent wikisources
should redirect to the multilingual wikisource
Product: Wikimedia
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Interwiki links
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
This issue has been confused with Bug 32189 and requires a separate bug. The
use of a link to a wikisource language subdomain that does not exist should
redirect to the multilingual wikisource via missing.php
(http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/tools/web-scripts/missing.php?view=markup).
In the past new language subdomains have asked for direct interwiki links (see
eo.ws (Bug 17008) and be.ws (Bug 26124)). Although creating aliases for
language subdomains in active incubation may be a good idea, this bug is
intended to deal with links created to valid languages irrespective of whether
works exist.
The point of this bug is so that, for example, on hi.wp [[s:Foo]] would link to
hi.wikisource.org/wiki/Foo which would redirect to wikisource.org/wiki/Foo and
on en.ws [[hi:Foo]] would create a sidebar link to the same page. AND the same
would happen for any other valid language code without a subdomain regardless
of whether any works actually existed.
