change in output for MediaWiki:1movedto2
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Author: c.stafford

Description:
right now, in MediaWiki:1movedto2 $1 is the old name, and $2 is the new name. the default system text in this page is "[[$1]] moved to [[$2]]"

the problem is, since $1 just got moved to $2, $1 is now a redirect to $2, making both those links essentially the same.

repeated attempts to use {{fullurl}} to make a redirect=no link out of $1 have failed due to the order of the parser dealing with {{fullurl}} vs the dereference of $1 to the value of the original name (it ends up with a link to the page "$1" not the value of $1)

consider on Special:Whatlinkshere

< thispage
The following pages link to thispage:

the first "thispage" is a link to the page including a "redirect=no", where as the 2nd one, does not have a redirect=no.
