Bug ID: 44590
Summary: GeoCrumbs doesn't handle cases where a destination on
a region boundary #isIn: more than one region
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: GeoCrumbs
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
All GeoCrumbs-tagged articles are inherently bastardised in that they can only
have one parent. If more than one #isIn tag is found, all but the last is
ignored. The extension assumes an orderly tree structure which does not
necessarily match the geographical situation on the ground.
Large rural areas are often divided by region boundaries, such as the
bi-national [[voy:Thousand Islands]] region, the [[voy:Glenrio]] Route 66 ghost
town (divided by a state line) or [[voy:Yellowstone National Park]] (one needs
to be smarter than the average bear as this spans three states).
The same issue arises for countries (and their subregions) split across
continents, most infamously [[voy:Russia]] and the Caucasus Mountains.
There needs to be a means to display multiple breadcrumb trails on these pages.
