Note there's two issues with file redirects. The one fixed also applies to local images in addition to foreign issues. The fixed issue is that redirects on commons didn't start to work until 24 hours after they are created. The issue that still remains is after a file moves, someone has to edit the page (or purge the page) of the page using the redirected name, before the image works again. (I've submitted a patch for that - https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/80135/ but its still pending review). --bawolff _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
