I reproduced this case and it showed the exact same thing. But then I went on to
change the
$wgWhitelistRead = array("Special:Userlogin"); excluded page ..
line into
$wgWhitelistRead = array("Посебно:Userlogin"); excluded page .. (i'm not sure
if this will be completely legible)
since I'm using a Serbian interface. It worked and it seems to me that the
software doesn't do redirects when every page is locked for viewing. So it's
only logical that you're using a non-english interface language, so insted of
"Special", write "Служебная" (Sluzhebnaya), since you are probably using a
Russian interface.
Hope this solves it

hm... okey i will try "Служебная" (Sluzhebnaya)
what charset i must use ? KOI8-R? UTF-8 ?

UTF-8 is what MediaWiki uses.

super! ... i type "Служебная" (Sluzhebnaya) in UTF-8 and this solve my problem!
thank you

Marking this as fixed... (my first "fixation" :)

anyway, i think that is not a normal solution..
mediawiki must eat English(International) name of page and self-convert to used
language before apply.
