Description

Author: pok148

Description:
The problem concerns Special Pages and redlinks.

On some special pages like Special:Shortpages, when an article is deleted by an admin, the link appears in red.

On other special pages like Special:Deadendpages, when an article is deleted by an admin the link appears in blue. For maintenace purpose it could be very helpful to have also redlinks for deleted pages in all special pages.

In Special:shortpages, in the html file, links are like : /w/index.php?title=xxxx
In Special:deadendpages, in the html file, links are like : /wiki/xxxx
I don't know if it is the reason.

regards

yes you're right, it's the same issue. Do you know if a patch will be released for this bug ?

Since several Special Pages do not display red links, I say this should be marked as a duplicate, and bug 11400 should be renamed.

This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 11400 ***
