Change Details

## Problem `DB key` and `prefixedText` are separate concepts and cannot be used interchangeably when working with page titles. For local pages, a title formatter could handle this, but for cross-wiki cases this approach does not work. ## Proposed solution - Investigate whether there is an existing helper in: - `WikiMap` - `MediaWikiSite` - `WikiReference` - `MediaWikiPageNameNormalizer` that can normalize/format page titles across wikis. - If no suitable helper exists, explore the alternative of using a manual API request (see [CheckUser patch 1083383](https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/CheckUser/+/1083383)). - Document and implement the appropriate approach so that CampaignEvents can properly handle cross-wiki page title normalization. ## References - Discussion with Daimona (Sep 2025) about separating `DB key` and `prefixedText`. - Identified as part of the broader *"can we make this work cross-wiki"* subject. - Claudio fixed a related issue, but this part was deferred into its own task.
