Hi In Enwiktionary we have auto redirect facility for eg. if i type Demography it redirect to demography where in tawiktionary its not redirecting.. can you please enhance this feature? Thanks & Regards Mahir
This is by default - On english wiktionary, they want [[Test]] to be different to [[test]] To be able to have this changed made, needs community agreement to make this change
Note enwiktionary uses javascript so that if the page [[Test]] does not exist, it gets redirected to [[test]]. That is probably what the original poster is referring to.
Yes, (still) needs to be fixed in local MediaWiki:Common.js. Please ask help on en.wiktionary or to one of the global interface editors, if you don't know how to copy the feature: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:GlobalUsers&group=editinterface (cc'ing hoo in case he's so kind as to investigate).
Well, this feature is hacked into enwikt in the following way: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Noarticletext is modified to use https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Template:didyoumean which shows a "did you mean X" dialog within a span. That's the logic behind finding the lower/ uppercase equivalents. The auto redirect then happens with a script in MediaWiki:Common.js (which I got a shorted/ modified version of: http://pastebin.com/Smh4xpg6 [untested]). If you want me to implement that on tawikt, just let me know.
