I hope this is one of the last BiDi issues: Please look at the links to the "parent pages" at [[yi:user:Gangleri/tests/TOC_and_sections]]. There the links overlap. The links should be embeded as: ‫[[באַניצער:Gangleri]]‬ | ‫[[באַניצער:Gangleri/tests|tests]]‬ compare bug 3922 comment 7 about bug 3922: links are not properly rendered in a BiDi category list I suppose this is the most general method to get BiDi issues fixed. a) at LTR wiki's (where such RTL or BiDi links can occur as well) these should be embeded as ‪[[link]]‬ b) at RTL wiki's these links should be embeded as ‫[[link]]‬ This should be done field by field. *note* A minor isues is caused about MediaWiki messages which are not translated to the content language. Mainly at RTL wiki's they cause also overlapping links and unwanted reordering of the fields in a line (as at [[yi:special:Recentchanges]] etc.) Embeding all these MediaWiki messages would require a lot of work. This request is *not* about embeding the MediaWiki messages. Please open another bug if you see a need for this Thanks in advance for all your work. best regards [[user:gangleri]]
*** Bug 3922 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Opened separate bugs for changes to individual (special) pages.
*note* at this moment summaries can be generated to display / render as LTR at a RTL wiki. Resize your browser window at http://he.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=template:wikivar&action=history in order to see the summary in one line. While titles (pages, user names etc) should not contain these punctuation characters (bug 3819) punctuation characters in summaries should be preserved as long as they occur *balanced* the number of opening and closing matchs and the order is correct. Summaries with *balanced* punctuation characters should be embeded as described in comment 1 *with* the punctuation characters from the summary. Summaries with *un*balanced punctuation characters should be normalised first.
changed dependencies bug 4040 blocks bug 4066 and bug 4066 blocks bug 0745
Bug 6100 which this bug blocks, was resolved. This bug also has open dependencies itself. Are all these issues also resolved (see below)? Please confirm! * bug 4040 (self) * bug 3922 (dependency) * bug 4043 (dependency) * bug 4044 (dependency) * bug 4045 (dependency)
Putting Amir and Robin on CC, because I'd like some feedback on comment 5.
lɛʁi Can you still reproduce these errors, now that we've improved bidirectional support with the deployment of MediaWiki 1.18? http://blog.wikimedia.org/2011/09/16/mediawiki118iscomin/
The problem still exists: see the "< באַניצער:Gangleri | tests" right under the title on https://yi.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%D7%91%D7%90%D6%B7%D7%A0%D7%99%D7%A6%D7%A2%D7%A8:Gangleri/tests/TOC_and_sections&redirect=no Because "Gangleri" and "tests" is LTR, "|" is neutral, and the rest of the environment is RTL, everything mixes. We could add some direction marks or <span dir="ltr/rtl">.
I can still reproduce it. Changed blocking from 745, because it's more general. Changing the title to make it clearer. Assigning to myself.
Changing the test URL, because Gangleri's username was changed. With an LTR username like mine, the bug can be easily reproduced.
Restored title, my misunderstanding.
A nice *general* solution would be to use Unicode isolation HTML5/CSS3 tricks, although that wouldn't work on IE (not even IE 10).
All blockers were closed.
