Dear friends; I assume this is core MediaWiki as magic words are defined in http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/includes/MagicWord.php?view=markup Please change the component to MediaWiki extensions if the following relates to [[mw:Extension:PathFunctions]] ( http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PathFunctions ) At the url and at some other pages from [[wikt:yi:special:Prefixindex/project:magic words]] you will see that {{ns:10}} renders as {{NS:10}}, {{fullurl:foo bar}} renders as {{FULLURL:foo bar}}. You may create similar examples for {{{subst:foo}}, {{localurl:bar}} and the other predefined templates. However it might be very irritating not only for newbies that there is a big difference when coming to / talking about / using magic words. request: {{pagename}} should behave as {{PAGENAME}}, {{contentlang}} should behave as {{CONTENTLANG}} etc. I assume that the language localizations of the magic words should be handeled the same way. I must admit I did never used / tested such localizations. Please open another report /bug / subtask with component « Internationalization » if necessery. Best regards Reinhardt [[user:Gangleri]]
Really, I think that just creating Template:pagename with {{PAGENAME}} inside it would be best. That way, it doesn't affect the code, and even if this were to be implemented, only a small amount of people are likely to use it. Just my $.02, though. -Soxred93
