* Create a page "Foo" * Move "Foo" to "Foo 2" * Move "Foo 2" to "Foo 2" "Foo" is now a double redirect. This could easily be avoided. * On loading [[Special:MovePage]] check if a page redirects to current page in question: * On [[Special:MovePage/Foo_2]] it would find "Foo" as redirect page. * Return a checkbox "Fix redirect page to avoid double redirects" (checked by default, link to [[Foo]] could be added)
Grrr Bugzilla! Edit: * Create a page "Foo" * Move "Foo" to "Foo 2" * Move "Foo 2" to "Foo 3"
Marking this as low priority as there are many bots that go around fixing them so developmental work on this isn't a priority, but if you can write a patch for it, please feel free to submit one.
I don't have bots! You must mean bots on Wikipedia ;) MediaWiki is not Wikipedia.
Oops sorry I was looking at the wrong component, marking back as normal :)
Have a look at $wgFixDoubleRedirects
Is $wgFixDoubleRedirects ment to work instantly? Cos it doesn't work. On moving "Foo 2" the etxra checkbox appeared (ticked), but after the move of "Foo 2" to "Foo 3", "Foo" was not changed to redirect to "Foo 3" now.
Ok it ended up in the job queue.
