Description Andrew Catherall 2011-08-23 17:46:13 UTC
Following [http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikien-l/2008-February/089554.html this] it is impossible to delete/move the main page (well, to view the confirmation screen) on any Wikimedia wiki, and it renders the following error message: 'You can't delete or move the main page' (see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Try_to_delete_the_main_page.png here]). However, when a non-admin tries to perform this action, the message is somewhat malformed - see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Main_page_errors.png]. I understand if this is closed as WONTFIX, as it is very trivial and will hardly ever be noticed.
Comment 1 Antoine "hashar" Musso (WMF) 2012-02-21 11:04:14 UTC
Was fixed somehow. The delete link does not show in monobook/vector. I tried action=delete with a non admin and could not reproduce that issue, so I assume it was fixed.
