Description Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) 2013-10-05 04:21:25 UTC
Originally from: http://sourceforge.net/p/pywikipediabot/feature-requests/207/
Reported by: tx1k1
Created on: 2009-06-23 07:27:23
Subject: Warning for cross-namespace interwiki links
Original description:
When working with interwiki.py, a warning is given if a page links to a different namespace. E.g.:

WARNING: \[\[gl:Categoría:Música irlandesa\]\] is in namespace 14, but \[\[en:Music of Ireland\]\] is in namespace 0. Follow it anyway? \(\[y\]es, \[n\]o, \[a\]dd an alternative, \[g\]ive up\)

In these cases, an additional option should be added, something like: "\[t\]ry for the same title in source's namespace".

In consequence, interwiki.py would continue working with the correct links with \[\[en:Category:Music of Ireland\]\], without retyping it again.
Comment 1 Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) 2013-10-05 04:21:27 UTC
this may be the same as feature request ID: 2612371
Comment 2 Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) 2013-10-05 04:21:29 UTC
I think they are similar, but not the same.
