Description Derk-Jan Hartman 2011-02-18 09:31:45 UTC
Example: https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/w/index.php?title=Special:EmailUser&target=Neutralhomer

returns "You have not specified a target page or user on which to perform this function."
Comment 1 Raimond Spekking 2011-02-18 10:03:32 UTC
r64903 changed 'target' to 'wpTarget'. https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/w/index.php?title=Special:EmailUser&wpTarget=Neutralhomer WFM.

Is this a regression or can the bug closed as WFM?
Comment 2 Derk-Jan Hartman 2011-02-18 10:12:07 UTC
hmm, this is now inconsistent with the other special pages such as special:contributions, what links here for instance. it also broke scripts that were using that format. (popups)
Comment 3 Happy-melon 2011-02-18 11:28:24 UTC
I think that the URL parameters here should be independent of the name of the form fields, especially where we support a [[Special:EmailUser/UserName]] format.  Fixed in r82392.
