When you trigger the link inspector on no selection and type in "foo", you are given suggestions like: * Foo * Foobar * Fooian Selecting any of these picks not just the target, but also the text of that target as the anchor (good) and the capitalisation of that target (less good). However, if I've typed "foo", did I definitely want [[foo]] rather than [[Foo]]? Should we show both [[Foo]] and [[foo]] options in the list if you type in "foo", but only [[Foo]] if you type in "Foo"? -- 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
