This issue was converted from https://jira.toolserver.org/browse/REPORTS-46. Summary: brokenimages returns false posities if a image on commons is really a redirect Issue type: Improvement - An improvement or enhancement to an existing feature or task. Priority: Major Status: Resolved Assignee: River Tarnell <river.tarnell@wikimedia.de> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Anders Einar Hilden <post@anderseinar.net> Date: Fri, 19 Sep 2008 19:10:18 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- One of the templates on no.wikipedia.org (Template:Infoboks Belgia kommune) used the images Sin_bandera.svg and Sin_escudo.svg, that are redirects on commons. This resulted in a lot of fake positives. The images in the template have been replaced, but it would be nice if the report could indicate that a image probably is a redirect, as a user can find no errors while looking at trough the article.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: River Tarnell <river.tarnell@wikimedia.de> Date: Fri, 19 Sep 2008 19:12:53 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Does it actually to indicate redirects (i.e. is that actually a problem) or would it sufficient to remove these redirects from the result entirely?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Anders Einar Hilden <post@anderseinar.net> Date: Fri, 19 Sep 2008 19:43:12 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It is sufficient to remove the redirects from the result entirely, as finding redirects is outside the scope of the report anyway. However, then i would request a report that listet only the redirects.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: River Tarnell <river.tarnell@wikimedia.de> Date: Fri, 19 Sep 2008 20:56:12 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fixed in r74. I modified brokenimages to exclude redirects, and added a new report, imageredirects. I'm running a nightly update now, once that's done the new reports will be visible.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Anders Einar Hilden <post@anderseinar.net> Date: Fri, 19 Sep 2008 21:36:23 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Could you include something like "ORDER BY namespace"? I'm primary interested in articles, while the current list mixes all namspaces. The previous one seemed to order correctly, but was probably a simpler query.
