             Bug #: 28410
           Summary: Address of redirected page not as expected
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: wikimedia-deployment
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Redirects
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified


A redirect results in the display of the correct page, but the displayed url is
of the redirect.
For example, [[W. V. Quine]] redirects to [[Willard Van Orman Quine]], but my
browser (Firefox) displays in the address bar:
"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W._V._Quine";.  This is confusing.  If I then want
to email that article, I do "<Alt>File>Send link" and get the address of the
redirect page instead the address of the page I see displayed.  Can the
software be changed so that the browser displays the correct address?
