Bug #: 29066
Summary: Cannot use inputbox with some page title
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Inputbox
AssignedTo: tpars...@wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: lll...@orange.fr
Classification: Unclassified
When creating an input box for a page title containing a ' character (' /
%27) using the FULLPAGENAME special word, the page title is truncated to this
character with an ampersand at the end.
Using FULLPAGENAMEE or urlencode:FULLPAGENAME instead of FULLPAGENAME doesn't
help and mediawiki show en error message about bad page title.
See
[http://fr.wikibooks.org/w/index.php?title=Mod%C3%A8le:Livre_d%27or&oldid=327714
template on french wikibooks]
I will not recommend using this extension until this major bug has been fixed.
It a major bug because the ' character is used in many languages.
It also need to be tested with other characters like (. ! ? & _ ...), accented
letters (é à ...).
