Description

Author: gangleri

Description:
Sorry for this:

At the url and at [[yi:special:Mostimages]] one can find references to
[[ar:Image:$1]] / [[yi:Image:$1]] (without any extension specified).

This is a counterpart of
Bug 2428: Special pages are shown in Special:Wantedpages

Request:
a) suppress links to the MediaWiki namespace

These links are not "red". So this report should include also a counterpart for
Bug 5812: Special:Mostlinked does not show red links for nonavailable pages

but this is *not* a request about
b) distinguish red / blue links at 'special:Mostimages'
reason: this would be complicated because of
bug ???:
Bug 5506: Links to images on Commons are red for page history, talk page

best regards reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]

Version: unspecified
Severity: trivial

I'm starting to think we need to prevent those sorts of links entering the link
tables at all, rather than suppressing on view/cache.

This is a good point. I see no use to show links inside the MediaWiki namespace
to [[whatever:$n]] at any special page.

Re: Bug 2428
Please see [[arc:Special:Wantedpages]] where links to [[User:$1]] are shown
beside links to [[$1]] and [[$2]].

Is this still an issue?

Is this still an issue?

Not as far as I can tell. I did some (semi) related work a few weeks ago and noticed this seemingly isn't a problem anymore. Didn't have the time to thoroughly check it out though.

Not getting this either.
