Web browser: --- Bug ID: 51326 Summary: Invisible symbols in Wikidata API Product: MediaWiki Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: Unprioritized Component: API Assignee: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org Reporter: ga...@inbox.ru CC: bjor...@wikimedia.org, bryan.tongm...@gmail.com, roan.katt...@gmail.com, s...@reedyboy.net Classification: Unclassified Mobile Platform: --- A behavior of Wikibase extension API differs from the general Mediawiki API when it works with invisible symbols like \u200d. The general Mediawiki API removes invisible symbols from titles in the query and returns results for titles without such symbols. For example, see [1]. The Wikibase extension API doesn't remove these symbols and it returns different result for queries with and without such symbols. For example, see [2] and [3]. I'm sure that it would be useful to have one policy for general API and its extension about these symbols.
