Bug ID: 57283
Summary: Saving to existing page from Special:FormEdit doesn't
explain why it fails
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized

(I'm sorry if this is a feature, but I'm confused enough to think it's a
bug...)
When saving a form that
1. has no target pagename in the URL,
2. uses the 'page name' parameter of {{{info}}},
3. results in attempting to edit a page that already exists,
I get a message such as "Modifying [[Test_One]] failed."
Is it possible to overrule this and demand that the page be saved, with the new
values, nonetheless?
For example, this form:
{{{info|page name=Test <Test[Type]>}}}
{{{for template|Test}}}
* Title: {{{field|Title}}}
* Type: {{{field|Type|input type=dropdown|values=One,Two,Three}}}
{{{end template}}}
When 'One' is selected for Type, and [[Test One]] already exists, will display
the above error.
Forgive me if I've missed the relevant documentation.
(Oh, this is with version 2.6 9bb8e4c.)
