Bug ID: 42915
Summary: ContentHandler's inability to create redirects for
certain content models should be reflected in the UI
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.21-git
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: ContentHandler
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
See [[en:Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)#Moving without redirect]].
The ContentHandler code correctly realizes that it cannot create a redirect for
content models such as "js" or "css". But the Special:MovePage user interface
does not reflect this: it will still offer the option to leave a redirect
behind, and after moving will incorrectly state that a redirect was created. It
appears the API action=move will have the same problem, including
'redirectcreated' in the response even if no redirect was actually created.
At least the part about incorrectly stating that the redirect was created
should be fixed.
