BacklinkCache was forgetting to check rd_interwiki when getting redirects, and thus getting some extranous backlinks for the redirect table (if there happened to be a page redirecting to an interwiki page with the same name plus an interwiki prefix). Not a major issue since this is really only used as far as i can tell, to purge squids and html file cache. A couple of extra unneeded purges shouldn't hurt anything, just a bit pointless. Comment: Since 1.16 - r69181 One thing, looking at r69181 just now it appears that the redirect table could have nulls in it during the time right after its added. I'm not sure if I should change the where condition to be rd_interwiki = '' or rd_interwiki is null? Or does it matter since the table was added three versions ago and old entries are updated on page view, so there really should not be any nulls left(?) _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
