Description Hesperian 2009-06-24 02:13:34 UTC The API tags links to Special:Search/Whatever with flag "missing", as though they are redlinks. e.g. <ttp://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&titles=Utricularia&generator=links&gpllimit=max> Comment 1 Roan Kattouw 2009-06-25 10:02:42 UTC <page ns="0" title="Special:Search/Utricularia" missing="" /> WTF? Special:Search surely isn't in ns 0, but in ns -1. Links to special pages shouldn't even be registered. Resolving as INVALID, since this is caused by database corruption, not by a bug in the API.
