Description The Anonymouse 2013-06-07 16:25:01 UTC
I created a wikilink [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:The_Anonymouse/sandbox2&diff=558776770&oldid=548109401] as [[United_States]]. I then tried to use VisualEditor to change the underscore to a space ([[United States]]), but it said that my edit was ignored due to no changes. However, if I actually click the link button and click the United States link suggestion, it works as expected. That is how I eventually accomplished the edit with VisualEditor [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:The_Anonymouse/sandbox2&diff=558777422&oldid=558776770].

Is this a Parsoid issue?

<p><a href="./Main_page" rel="mw:WikiLink" data-parsoid="{&quot;a&quot;:{&quot;href&quot;:&quot;./Main_page&quot;},&quot;sa&quot;:{&quot;href&quot;:&quot;Main_page&quot;},&quot;stx&quot;:&quot;simple&quot;,&quot;dsr&quot;:[0,13,2,2]}">Main page</a></p>

serialises to

[[Main_page]]

whereas

<p><a href="./Main_page" rel="mw:WikiLink">Main page</a></p>

serialises to

[[Main page]]

which is what we want

This got fixed a long time ago; sorry for the slow triage on your report.
