Description Huji 2007-04-29 17:30:15 UTC
MediaWiki:Pagemovedtext is defined like this in English Wikipedia:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Pagemovedtext&action=edit

I applied a similar code in Farsi Wikipedia (I have only translated the
sentences, and instead of using Template:MediaWiki_direct_link and
Template:MediaWiki_direct_link_2, I pasted their code into the
MediaWiki:Pagemovedtext itself) as below:

http://fa.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Pagemovedtext&action=edit

(In order to be able to read the code more easily, you may need to change the
direction of the editbox, by right clicking on it and choosing Switch Text
Direction or a similar menu item).

This code works correctly in English wikipedia:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Movepage&action=success&oldtitle=User:Huji/Test1&newtitle=User:Huji/Test2&talkmoved=notalkpage

The links for the old and new name of the page work correctly. However, in Farsi
Wikipedia:

http://fa.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%D9%88%DB%8C%DA%98%D9%87:Movepage&action=success&oldtitle=%D9%88%DB%8C%DA%A9%DB%8C%E2%80%8C%D9%BE%D8%AF%DB%8C%D8%A7:%D9%82%D9%87%D9%88%D9%87%E2%80%8C%D8%AE%D8%A7%D9%86%D9%87&newtitle=%D9%88%DB%8C%DA%A9%DB%8C%E2%80%8C%D9%BE%D8%AF%DB%8C%D8%A7:%D9%82%D9%87%D9%88%D9%87%E2%80%8C%D8%AE%D8%A7%D9%86%D9%87/%D8%A8%D8%A7%DB%8C%DA%AF%D8%A7%D9%86%DB%8C+%DB%B1%DB%B8&talkmoved=1

As you can see, the old and new links are not correct. The title of the links is
correctly replaced with the old and new name of the moved page, but the links
are like this:

http://fa.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=$1&redirect=no --> for the old name
http://fa.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=$2&redirect=no --> for the new name

It means, the $1 an $2 in the above code are not replaced with the old and new
name of the page. It is really weired, because these values are replaced for the
title of the link (the text of the link) but not for the address of the link.
