Description Helder 2014-03-25 12:52:44 UTC
The first time I access a URL such as
http://korma.wmflabs.org/browser/people.html?id=3&name=FooBar
it shows the name FooBar instead of the appropriated name. In subsequent accesses, the correct name is displayed (but I'm able to reproduce the problem by changing the id number to something which I not tested so far)

What do you click in order to en in a page like this?

Clicking "Brian Davis" at http://korma.wmflabs.org/browser/scm.html leads to

http://korma.wmflabs.org/browser/people.html?id=531&name=Bryan%20Davis

If I change the paramenter, the result is still correct e.g.

http://korma.wmflabs.org/browser/people.html?id=531&name=Quim%20Gil

still shows "Brian Davis" in the page.
Comment 2 Helder 2014-03-25 19:42:22 UTC
Such links were not in the interface, I was making some test and replaced the id (not the name) parameter of a link such as the one you mentioned and noticed the displayed name was still the same.

For example, if I click in "Reedy" at http://korma.wmflabs.org/browser/scm.html
it opens
http://korma.wmflabs.org/browser/people.html?id=204&name=Reedy
and if I replace "204" by "224" the name is still "Reedy" (instead of "coren").

BTW: Why do we need both an id and a name?
