Quim Gil <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Priority|Low |Lowest CC| |[email protected], | |[email protected], | |[email protected], | |[email protected] Version|unspecified |1.23-git --- Comment #18 from Quim Gil <[email protected]> --- There were two parallel discussions here. One was about (en.wiki?) policies. The other one was about software performance. Since this is a request for MediaWiki Core, the discussion about policies is secondary, and what really matters is this: (In reply to Wil Mahan from comment #5) > To do this, we'd need to check every link to see if it is a redirect > (right now, this happens for users with a stub length threshold > set), and check whether the targets of the redirects exist.

Better than having the db > recursively query a bunch of crap. In other words, an expensive price for what seems to be a minor feature. This report was WONTFIXED almost a decade ago, and it was reopened because it was considered that the policy should be discussed. Looking only at the software side, this looks indeed like a WONTFIX in 2014. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
