Description Liangent 2010-06-23 15:19:39 UTC Originally from a question in IRC. A user asked how to link to a file with "'' ''" in its name, and I found out a little trick to use [[:File:Some ''bug''.jpg]]. But such page names cause some user interface messages to be broken. See [[commons:Special:WhatLinksHere/File:Denys_Savchenko_''Pentecoste''.jpg]]. Comment 1 Platonides 2010-06-23 16:28:10 UTC Note: the fact that pages with embedded ' are hard to link is bug 4598 Comment 2 Platonides 2010-06-24 07:29:17 UTC Fixed in r68491
