Derk-Jan Hartman <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #6 from Derk-Jan Hartman <[email protected]> --- The problem here is one of the oldest in MediaWiki linking. You can't use a local url to create an 'external' link and you can't use an internal link if you want/need to add query elements: This is not possible: [[Special:UserLogin?returnto=anotherpage]] This would be ideal, but is not possible [{{localurl:Special:UserLogin|returnto=anotherpage}} linkname] So we use this: [{{fullurl:Special:UserLogin|returnto=anotherpage}} linkname] So yes indeed, we used to have to fragment the cache for exactly this problem when we used secure.wikimedia.org I don't think we want to repeat that, but it is something that needs solving in core in order to sustainably avoid that we redirect users left and right. (Note that the fullurl links are frequent in many UI messages for instance. I can't find the ticket for this right now, but I'm sure there is one out there for this problem. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
