Bug #: 29536
Summary: inconsistent namespace capitalisation handling breaks
inline queries
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Semantic MediaWiki
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
A page type property set like so:
[[image::image:foo.jpg]]
will get its capitalisation partially converted, yielding a property named
Image (note correct case) that points to the page image:Foo.jpg (note correct
case of Foo.jpg and incorrect case of the Image: namespace).
When included in the results from an inline query {{#ask: ... |format=table}}
the image will not be rendered. If I go to the trouble of correcting the
namespace case manually, then the image will be rendered, but I'd rather not
(babysitting users is tedious). I expect semantic mediawiki to autocorrect the
namespace case for me, if only for reasons of consistency since it autocorrects
the 2 other instances of incorrect capitalisation in this case.
There is also an issue with queries on the form {{#ask: [[category:foo]]},
which fail only because the "Category:" namespace is wrongly capitalised.
However if a page type property has the same error, e.g. {{#ask:
[[prop::category:foo]]}}, then the query works. Furthermore, it works
regardless of namespace capitalisation, incuding allcaps {{#ask:
[[prop::CATEGORY:foo]]}}.
I expect semantic mediawiki to use e.g. {{ucfirst: ... }} for namespaces.
