Bug #: 29803
Summary: File usage information on Commons is not displaying
all instances from other projects
Product: Wikimedia
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Interwiki links
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
When the Wiktionaries went case-sensitive, the file usage checking from Commons
became case-sensitive. However, the case-sensitivity on Wiktionaries applies
only internally, and does not apply when an external link is made to another
project. In particular, links from a Wiktionary to files on Commons are not
case-sensitive because the link is made to a case-insensitive project.
As a result, Commons file usage information only displays some of the instances
of a file used on the Wiktionaries. For example, File:La-cls-discipulus.ogg is
used on the English Wiktionary, but its page on Commons says "There are no
pages that link to this file."
Commons should realize that links made to it from *any* project are de facto
case-insensitive because it is itself case-insensitive.
