CC-BY-SA should be CC BY-SA
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Apparently I've become a pilkunnussija, and I noticed that in the mobile app we're showing CC-BY-SA in some places when it should be CC BY-SA. Any chance we can fix? Obviously lowest of low priorities. :)

This text comes from the template on Commons. You'll need to request or execute a change on http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:cc-by-sa-3.0 et al.

Where does it come from in the template? Just the name, or... ? (I assume
we can't have a space in the template name?)

The master templates to fix would be Cc-by-layout and Cc-by-sa-layout, although that's only Commons of course.

It's the <span class="licensetpl_short" style="display:none;">CC-BY-{{{version|}}}{{#if:{{{country|}}}|-{{{country}}}}}</span> part towards the end of the template, so it's separate from everything. They use the same format in category names and template names (neither has technical restrictions for spaces).

Thanks Luis and TheDJ!
(Due to the various caches involved, this might take about two days to take effect.)

This was suggested before but never went ahead as no confirmation could be gotten from the MediaViewer team that things wouldn't break. Has that been checked since?

That ping probably went unnoticed. An email or a ticket is usually a more reliable form of getting confirmation.

Worst thing that could happen is that it doesn't recognize it as a CC license and doesn't display the little CC logo until it is fixed, which is still not a big deal, so no reason to block because of that. Most of the license data is parsed from the template, whether it is recognized or not.

Anyway, I'll add a test to CommonsMetadata to make sure it handles things correctly.

MultimediaViewer doesn't handle this change, see this (shows a book instead of CC logo).

That's probably just the CommonsMetadata change being late. I forgot that the servers don't get code updates for two weeks around Christmas. The change will go out on January 7, I think.

This is fixed in the codebase, hence closing again. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Bug_management/Bug_report_life_cycle for the meaning of resolved and see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.25/Roadmap for deployment dates (when to expect the fix to be available on Wikimedia servers).
