Bug #: 29025
Summary: Magic links are inconsistent with common parser rules
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Page rendering
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: theevilipaddr...@hotmail.de
Classification: Unclassified
The behavior of line breaks when it comes to magic links, like RFC or PMID, is
different from the usual behavior of line breaks in wiki syntax. If there are
more than two linebreaks between the lines, they will be put on different
lines. However, if they are magic links, then they will still stay magic links,
even with line breaks in between. That's quite unlikely the intention, and I
would probably suggest to only allow regular spaces as separators of the
"RFC"/"PMID" strings and the numbers. See
http://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_links for some examples I've given.
