Bug ID: 64690
Summary: Broken anchor links open in browser and redirect to
wikipedia.org landing page
Product: Wikipedia App
Version: Android (alpha)
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Generic
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]

Mobile Platform: ---
If an article has abbreviated anchor links, such as [[#foo]] in the article
"bar", but there is no corresponding anchor (typically because the sections
were retitled after that link was added), then on desktop the link simply
points to the page itself; that link is equivalent to [[bar#foo]].
In the app, by contrast, tapping it will open the browser, with a link like
this: http://www.wikipedia.org/#foo
Right now, you can see a live example of this in the links in this table:

I also set up an instance here:
