--- Comment #2 from Brion Vibber <[email protected]> 2011-04-15 19:02:44 UTC --- If you need to output binary data in a structured text tree, it should be as hex strings (as with SHA-1 hashes of image files) or perhaps occasionally as base64. It sounds here that something is overriding the category sort key (a manually-specified piece of text that replaces the page's own title for sorting purposes in category lists, which if not specified will take the original title's value) with a normalized binary sort key that's generated from it and used at a the low-level for sorting. That should probably not be returned as cmsortkey (a well-known text field), but as an additional parameter which is specifically a post-processed binary key. Probably whatever's changed the sort key is doing it directly in the database instead of adding a new field? -- 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 [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
