Description Leah 2005-08-10 08:34:09 UTC
This page should now be located at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Eequor/%CE%B1 (which does not exist). 
However, attempting to move this page to its correct location results in the
mistaken error "Source and destination titles are the same"; attempting to move
it to any other location results in the error "This action cannot be performed
on this page."

Comment 4 Brion Vibber 2007-12-28 20:04:41 UTC
HTML character reference entities should be forbidden from titles in the same was as URL-style percent codes. I thought there was another bug entry on this subject floating around but can't find it at the moment...

A title cleanup run for existing titles will need to be run after this fix (see notes on bug 11849 and bug 12436).
Comment 5 Brion Vibber 2007-12-28 21:36:03 UTC
Fix applied to fully forbid such broken pages in r28968. Will run cleanupTitles on Wikimedia sites...
