Matt <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version|1.19.1 |1.19.3 --- Comment #2 from Matt <[email protected]> --- I've also corrected the Mediawiki version, it is 1.19.3, I apparently misread it. Either way, I'm coming from Wikia and have no way to update MediaWiki versions, not forgetting the last upgrade Wikia did was from 1.16. I'm also aware of how $1 (or $2, $3, etc.) are variables altered depending on usage. As an example, the link references /wiki/Special:Upload?wpDestFile=$1 an example of which can be seen http://camtest.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Filerevert-intro as opposed to linking to the filepath that would be there when the image has been uploaded. When the page is created it then links to the file - http://camtest.wikia.com/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/File:$1. You'll notice I've also created File:$1 redirecting it to another, which doesn't resolve the issue. I wouldn't say this poses any major problem, likely there's not very much point in adding to the page under normal circumstances. It just seems a little odd to have a system message that automatically creates a redlink as soon as it's created. I assume the same is true of links to [[User:$1]], [[$1]], etc. which are normally redirected to a placeholder page in my experience, although in this case that doesn't work. It would probably be nice to recognise those as issues here too. Perhaps those should automatically redirect to a placeholder system message? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. You are the assignee for the bug.
