Bug ID: 45282
Summary: SiteLinkTable should normalize titles before saving
and lookup
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified

OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal

SiteLinkTable should apply light weight normalization to page titles before
storing the. This would avoid issues with specifying titles with or without
spaces as parameters to API calls, etc.
The following normalization should be applied:
* strip leading and trailing whitespace
* unicode normalization
* converting underscores to spaces (currently, the items_per_site table uses
spaces in the page titles, in violation of current practice elsewhere in the
database schema)
The following normalization should not be applied:
* namespace normalization (this requires knowledge of the target wiki's config)
* first letter capitalization (requires knowledge about the target wiki's
content language, but also about namespaces)
* redirect resolution (requires access to the target wiki's database)
