--- Comment #5 from Aryeh Gregor <simetrical+wikib...@gmail.com> 2011-01-07 17:01:19 UTC --- The way they're used in practice is that if cl_sortkey_prefix is empty, then cl_sortkey = $wgContLang->convertToSortkey( page_title ). Otherwise, cl_sortkey = $wgContLang->convertToSortkey( cl_sortkey_prefix . "\0" . page_title ). See Title::getCategorySortkey() and Language::convertToSortkey(). cl_sortkey is in general an arbitrary binary string which may bear no discernible relationship to the original page title or sortkey prefix, once we start using proper ICU or CLDR or whatever for sortkeys. So I can't imagine why anyone would want the actual value; logically, you'd only want to sort by it. I don't know why you'd want cl_sortkey_prefix either, for that matter (although it is going to be human-readable text). I can't see any use for it other than constructing cl_sortkey. Do you know of anyone who actually wants or uses these? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
