Attachments Adds ability to override wgCapitalLinks when it comes to usernames (1.83 KB, patch) 2004-09-05 06:09 UTC, Michael Reynolds Details Add an attachment (proposed patch, testcase, etc.)

Description Michael Reynolds 2004-09-05 06:08:11 UTC Summary pretty much says it all. The patch, which will be added after this report is submitted, as I cannot figure out how to attach a patch on report creation, will add the ability to disable case alteration on usernames when wgCapitalLinks is set to true. Comment 1 Michael Reynolds 2004-09-05 06:09:45 UTC Created attachment 27 [details] Adds ability to override wgCapitalLinks when it comes to usernames Comment 2 Brion Vibber 2004-09-05 06:43:13 UTC This patch doesn't seem to keep consistency between user and user_talk namespaces. It also sets the default incorrectly, and would produce bad sorting in user lists and other problems.
