             Bug #: 28411
           Summary: titles of articles with LTR titles in RTL wikis may be
                    displayed incorrectly in categories
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: wikimedia-deployment
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: i18n
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: General/Unknown
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
            Blocks: 745
    Classification: Unclassified


When a title of a page is in LTR characters, it may be displayed incorrectly,
because the punctuation will jump to the wrong end of the line. For proper
display on the page itself it can be solved by using something like
[[Template:Correct title]], but when the title is listed in a category, this
template has no effect. So, for example, the title of [[Good Riddance (Time of
Your Life)]] is displayed in categories in the Hebrew Wikipedia as "(Good
Riddance (Time of Your Life".

Adding LRM in the end of the title would solve this problem; a redirect from a
title without the LRM could be created for easy linking. LRM is not allowed in
page titles, however; see Bug 3696.
