Description MZMcBride 2012-10-30 22:29:49 UTC
Currently, <https://donate.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:LandingCheck> returns an error:

---
LandingCheck
No pages were found while performing the request.
---

This should not happen. I'm marking this bug as critical, as many pages redirect to this page from <https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Special:LandingCheck>, including URLs such as <https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Fundraising>.

First reported at <https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Foundation_wiki_feedback&oldid=4360044#Broken_donate_link_on_error_page> by Topbanana.

Redirects to Special pages, according to Toolserver's foundationwiki_p:

Strangely, <https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Donate> seems to work, but <https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Fundraising> does not. /Donate seems to be a high-level (Web server-level) redirect. After a bit of further investigation, this bug is probably not critical.

This is not actually a bug in LandingCheck, the link on the error page is
broken. LandingCheck is performing exactly as intended. I submitted a patch a
long time ago, but Ops has ignored it so far

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/18331/

I've updated the redirect as well:

Comment 3 Andre Klapper 2012-10-31 13:01:06 UTC
I guess we should get this in soon before the season starts.
Comment 4 Peter Gehres 2012-10-31 16:46:19 UTC
I'm not too concerned about this getting deployed before the fundraiser since it only comes into play during downtime :-)
Comment 5 Andre Klapper 2013-07-23 09:08:04 UTC
Patch got merged on 2013-07-03 11:17. Closing as FIXED.
