--- Comment #6 from Umherirrender <umherirrender_de...@web.de> 2012-02-20 19:52:19 UTC --- Usecase: Computer can better handle numbers than text. The title can get long and can have UTF-8, which makes some programms problems. You can save bandwidth, heap space, need no urlencode for this part. For languages with variants you does not have to handle that and it is easy to check, if the title is the same. In my opinion there are many usecases for using a pageid rather a namespace-prefixed title. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
