Currently this means all these constructions either fail or have a special exception for mediawikiwiki * Browser search quick-linking. Many advanced users have something like 'w' as a shortcut to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/$1 . linking to mw:Test fails, yet again. * etc.. I haven't read any arguments against this since late 2009 (when I first encoutered the problem) - what's up ? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
