--- Comment #3 from C. Scott Ananian <[email protected]> --- From IRC discussion w/ GWicke: gwicke: I think that we should not resolve redirects for top-level requests gwicke: should return a meta instead that lets the VE edit the redirect cscott-free: yeah, although editing "#REDIRECT [[foo]]" is a bit awkward, that's an <ol> gwicke: obviously we'd expose it as <meta property="mw:Redirect" content="foo"> or something like that cscott-free: i think i learned recently that there can be other 'stuff' in a redirect? gwicke: arguably this should eventually end up in the head instead of the content gwicke: but for now we should probably keep it in the content area in the interest of round-tripping cscott-free: that makes sense. gwicke: cscott: there can be page content following it that is normally ignored by MW gwicke: but we should probably still round-trip it gwicke: hence the idea to keep it inline for now rather than returning a blank body with meta info in the head (01:58:07 PM) cscott-free: i suspect there should be a corresponding VE bug for editing the <meta property="mw:Redirect" content="foo"> (01:58:08 PM) gwicke: maybe we should use link / rel / href again (01:58:21 PM) gwicke: for the same relative link resolution reasons (see bug 45206 comment 5 for a brief discussion of the meta/link issues) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
