Description Sundar 2005-07-27 11:09:36 UTC
Hi,
In Tamil wiki (http://ta.wikipedia.org) we find that affixes to wikilinked words are not 
automatically linked, only the part within the square brackets is automatically linked. Outside of 
them it remains normal text. For example if we write [[குலக்குழு]]க்கள், only குலக்குழு will be 
underlined and turned into a hyperlink, not the remaining part of the word. Surprisingly, for 
English words in Tamil wikipedia, it works very well i.e. [[Example]]s will link the whole word. 
Perhaps the software is treating all non-English characters as separators. Please fix this.

http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0B80.pdf says the Unicode range 0B80-0BFF is reserved for 
Tamil. Can you include this entire range?

The same problem has come back again. Was there a Mediawiki update? Can someone
