--- Comment #9 from Gabriel Wicke <wi...@wikidev.net> 2012-03-08 18:59:28 UTC --- I have not tested the performance impact yet, but have doubts about promoting manual non-breaking space insertion. An alternative to consider would be to insert non-breaking spaces automatically in these links, which would avoid cluttering the source with ugly HTML entities. The length of IDs and especially of RFC/ISBN/PMID prefixes is quite short, so a non-breaking space should not cause major display problems, even on small displays. ISBN links in narrow table columns (infoboxes maybe) could still be an issue, and would need to be checked. Independent of the non-breaking space issue I am in favor of restricting the number of newlines between link prefix and ID just as you did in your patch. Could you rework the patch to include the count directly in the regexp, similar to my regexp above? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
