Fixing cleanupTitles.php to allow moving pages over one-rev self-redirects, just like with normal page moving, would IMHO be a good idea anyway. The code can be adapted from Title::isValidMoveTarget() and Title::moveOverExistingRedirect(). In fact, the former method could probably be used as is -- while the situation in cleanupTitles is a bit unusual, in that title normalization will cause the redirect to point to itself, Title::isValidMoveTarget() seems to already have code in place to handle that special case. -- Ilmari Karonen _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
