            Bug ID: 51791
           Summary: TemplateData for redirected templates
           Product: VisualEditor
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Editing Tools

Many templates are redirects from a short name to a long name. An example is
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Commons_cat which is a redirect to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Commons_category and has 68742 pages
transcluding it. Even though Commons_category has template data specified, and
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Commons_cat/doc redirects to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Commons_category the visual editor does
not pick up the correct parameters in the template dialog box. 

There should be a way of making the dialog work for redirecting templates
without having to duplicate the documentation.
