But not the rss!:


( https://radioscanningtw.miraheze.org/w/api.php?uselang=en&action=feedrecentchanges )

In the RSS there are lots of
Topic:Vmzesp0upz46b23i
things that make little sense to humans.

Indeed the pleasant chit chat is turned into a list of Topic:zzzz .

So changes to a non-Structured Discussions page,

look great. But for a Structured Discussions page, they become

Hi @Jidanni, please always follow https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/How_to_report_a_bug and provide:

  • steps to reproduce,
  • what happens after performing these steps to reproduce,
  • what you expected to happen instead.

In separate sections. Thanks.

Is this about the <title> not including the actual thread title, but instead only a cryptic Topic:Vsomething? Or something else?

The problem is in
https://radioscanningtw.miraheze.org/w/api.php?uselang=en&action=feedrecentchanges
when encountering Structured Discussion content,
the <description> is empty:

<item>
<title>Topic:Vmzesp0upz46b23i</title>

Also we can't tell what the real title of the page it is talking about,
as Topic... is mentioned four times, but the real title of the talk page, zero times.

Thanks! In the future, please clearly and explicitly mention such things in the initial task description by providing 1) steps to reproduce, 2) expected outcome, 3) actual outcome. Thanks.

Aklapper renamed this task from RSS API not ready for Structured discussions to RSS for Structured discussions has an empty <description> and the real <title> is missing.May 29 2020, 6:32 AM
