The thing is that we intended this to be an internal apache rewrite, not a HTTP redirect at all. Because Special:EntityData itself implements the content negotiation that triggers a 303 when appropriate. So, currently we get a 302 from /entity/Q$1 to /wiki/Special:EntityData/$1 (the generic document URI), which then applies content negotiation and sends a 303 pointing to e.g. /wiki/Special:EntityData/$1.ttl (the URL of a specific serialization, e.g. in turtle). What I want is to remove the initial 302 completely using an internal rewrite, not replace it with another 303 - since I don't think that's semantically correct. This did not work when tried, for reasons unknown to me. Someone suggester that the wrong options where set for the rewrite rule, who knows. Kingsley, do you think having two 303s (from /entity/Q$1 to /wiki/Special:EntityData/$1 and another one to wiki/Special:EntityData/$1.xxx) would be appropriate or at least better than what we have now? -- daniel _______________________________________________ Wikidata-l mailing list Wikidata-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikidata-l
