See https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65366#c5

"Hi. I was using the Special:Random/File tool for a long time on rowiki, in order to fish for unfree images and candidates for Commons. Last days when I accessed the tool, it returned me only Commons files. Tried @ enwiki - same drill"

Comment 1 Nik Everett 2014-06-15 19:44:14 UTC

I'm pretty sure this is something we did when we implemented Special:Random using Cirrus.  Cirrus likes to include commons results in searches so I'm pretty sure we're including them in Special:Random.  I'm pretty sure that is wrong.

Comment 2 PiRSquared17 2014-06-16 01:15:31 UTC

I went to Special:Random/File and ended up on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Mastini

I got other results from non-file namespaces, including the talk page of an IP address.

I also went to Special:Random/Talk and got sent to a User_talk page.

Special:Random/NS is seriously broken with Cirrus.

Comment 3 Nik Everett 2014-06-16 14:26:17 UTC

Yup.  Its pretty busted.  I'm fixing it right now.
