Summary: Remove unnecessary restrictions on DISPLAYTITLE
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: General/Unknown
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
As far as I can tell, we can currently only use the magic word DISPLAYTITLE in
certain special cases, i.e. to change the case of the initial letter of the
title, to add italics and bolding (maybe there are others). It seems to be
impossible to use it to work around other technical restrictions on titles,
such as the prohibitions on using certain characters. Surely this isn't
necessary - just because there are technical problems with using a character in
wikilinks, there should be no need to prevent it from being displayed to users
in the article header.
