Bug ID: 59208
Summary: Page redirects are not recognized by VisualEditor's
link inspector
Product: VisualEditor
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
1. Edit an article with VisualEditor
2. Select a word for which a redirect exists (not an actual page)
3. Click the "link" icon.
EXPECTED
Since a redirect exists, the link inspector shows the option in blue (since the
link is functional). All the better if it is shown in italics, just like
redirects are shown by MediaWiki in lists of pages.
ACTUAL
Redirects are ignored by the link inspector. They appear just as red as a
missing string. This creates a lot of extra work having to search the string
manually in another window.
