Commit summary for MediaWiki.r111861: Bug 27619: Remove the option to show broken links as: link? Being bold here, but otherwise it will still be there in 2016 GWicke's comment: There are likely bigger issues for text browsers than missing link target existence indication. Removal of preference-dependent HTML from the content is important for better caching, and should really override this minor inconvenience for the very few. At least following the link will be very fast with a text browser, so you quickly see if the article exists or not ;) _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
