[wp-docs] internal linking problem?

[Cori Schlegel]

I'm not a heavy contributor to the codex, and I don't watch this list religiously, so please forgive me if this has been answered elsewhere. I noticed a few days back that it seem like the internal linking style of the Codex has changed, I'm guessing since the roll out of MediaWiki 1.5.7. If you look at my "desktop" (http://codex.wordpress.org/User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop) you can see what I mean: A link I added before 1.5.7 uses the syntax [[User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/get_settings|get_settings]] and points to http://codex.wordpress.org/User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/get_settings A link I added just a few days ago uses the syntax [[User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/TinyMCE|TinyMCE]] and sort of points to http://codex.wordpress.org/index.php?title=User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/TinyMCE&action="">.  By sort of I mean that MediaWiki seems to think that the page doesn't exist and thus provides the default "edit" link, but when you follow the link you get to my page in edit mode but with content.  If you go to http://codex.wordpress.org/User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/TinyMCE you get the actual page. As I recall from my own install of MediaWiki, there was a bit to do with friendly urls, but it's been a while so I don't recall for sure.  That was also 1.5.1 (I think).  Relying on that vague memory though, leads me to believe that the new Codex is using the not-nice urls by default. Has anyone else noted this?  Is there a running discussion I haven't seen? Thanks in advance for any insight... cori
