Bug ID: 57786
Summary: VisualEditor: The category tool should automatically
strip the namespace "Category:" out of the cat name,
if the editor types it in
Product: VisualEditor
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
Intention:
Add a category to a page
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the page in VisualEditor and choose the categories tool.
2. Type the full name of the category, including the namespace:
Category:Example
Actual Results:
VisualEditor adds a non-existent, malformed category named
[[Category:Category:Example]].
Expected Results:
That VisualEditor would recognize that "Category:Example" already contained the
namespace, and thus omit the duplication. Ideally, at non-English wikis, it
would recognize and remove both the local name for the namespace and the
English name, since both are typically valid (e.g., strip out both "Kategorie"
and "Category" at the German Wikipedia).
Reproducible: Always
