Are you saying no redlinks is expected? 1.15 was released 2 years ago. Meanwhile, 1.16 has been out over a year (and live on WMF sites for longer) and 1.17 is out now. I think redlinks on un-uploaded files are expected now. If you're fine with the redlinks, then it seems were just quibbling about the link text. And, I agree that having “NNNpx” in the link text is not desired. But there is a workaround. > a workaround like [[File:To be uploaded.jpg|300px|]] would add false syntax > to all pages and is also no solution to this bug which could easily be solved > to the way it was. If you know this is so easily solved, then you can solve it. Patches welcome! I've previously spent a substantial amount of fixing a link bug, only to have my work reverted (see Bug #542), so I am personally aware of how careful we have to be about these things. Incidentlly, “Patches welcome!” isn't a way to say “go away”. I really mean it — I want more people involved and contributing. “Patches welcome!” does mean “I don't think we have time to track down and solve what appears to be a minor problem, but you have the source code and this bug database to provide any patches you can come up with. We'll integrate your fixes if they meet our quality standards.” -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
