Summary: Redirect preview rendering stops prematurely, hides
categories
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: trivial
Priority: Normal
Component: Page rendering
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
If I make a redirect, like the following:
#REDIRECT [[Sophie Cabra]]
[[Category:Elephant characters]]
and then click preview, the category bar is not shown at the bottom of the
preview.
Conversely, if I write the following:
[[Category:Elephant characters]]
#REDIRECT [[Sophie Cabra]]
the category bar is shown in the prieview.
If I save the page and view the redirect page, the category bar is shown in
either case.
It seems like processing of the preview ends at the redirect. This gives a
misleading view of the categories that the redirect will be in, and may mislead
people into thinking that a redirect cannot be in a category. If the order
does not matter in the saved page, it should not matter in the preview either.
