Bug ID: 56497
Summary: Use on another website not very effective link
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: MultimediaViewer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
For example, its suggested to use the code
<a href="/wiki/File:Lu3 1.tiff"><img
src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/db/Lu3_1.tiff"; /></a>
To link to another website. This isn't going to work
*The link is a local link, other website is probably different domain
*The image src is to a tiff file, it should be to a thumbnail as most browsers
cannot read tiffs
**Furthermore, for the file formats they can read, files are big, you probably
don't want to insert a 200000px file on to another website (Same thing goes for
the use directly inline on Wikipedia).
