--- Comment #4 from Aryeh Gregor <simetrical+wikib...@gmail.com> 2011-01-03 23:32:14 UTC --- No, I'm not. If the user goes to a page that doesn't exist, check for similar-looking page names, and if you find a plausible match do a redirect. You'd probably want to make it like a normal redirect, not an HTTP redirect, because otherwise you'd have trouble creating the page if you want it to contain something different. What's wrong with this approach? Specifically, given that there's no way to stop these bogus autolinks from existing, do you have a solution with a better cost/benefit ratio? On a website I run, I noticed a lot of 404s were due to bogus trailing punctuation (the opposite problem to the one seen here). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
