Bug ID: 68752
Summary: crosswiki link in Cyrillic is not being rendered
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Yukos&oldid
=618838445
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Skin and page rendering

CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Web browser: Internet Explorer
Mobile Platform: ---
Intention:
I was creating a crosswiki link in an article, from [[en:Yukos]] to [[ru:Сергей
Муравленко]], a relevant article in ruwiki that doesn't have an enwiki
equivalent. (It probably should, but that's another day's issue...)
I added this markup to the section "History" of [[en:Yukos]]:
>> [[ru:Сергей Муравленко|Sergei Muravlenko]] (Cyrillic: Сергей Муравленко),
>> the former General Director of [...]
I added the link this way to keep the link in Cyrillic, so it would be is
easily understood and meaningful to other editors (especially as it's
cross-wiki and non-English). The alternative of a long string of encoded
Unicode wouldn't be helping anyone.
I was expecting the usual - display text in English, and a hyperlink to the
article "Сергей Муравленко" in ruwiki.
Instead it didn't render at all (entire element omitted from visible Wiki
article render)
