Description Michael M. 2012-03-02 09:52:52 UTC

Since the update to 1.19 there are several bugs due to missing normalization of the name on Special:Contributions

* Using entities causes a server error (see URL, or just enter &Auml; as user name)
* Leading whitespace before IPs is not removed, compare [[Special:Contributions/93.157.221.6]] (edits are shown) and [[Special:Contributions/ 93.157.221.6]] (no edits)

Comment 2 db [inactive,noenotif] 2012-03-03 10:04:46 UTC

Special:Contributions is usingn User::newFromName( $target, false ); since r103751, but that method does not do title normalisation like stripping leading/trailing whitespaces for parameter "false", but without false ips does not work.

...or ignore it, most of it is about template synatx and urlencoded wikilinks (working as usual).

Interesting comment: it worked in 1.18, compare
