Created attachment 16408 [details] Screenshot illustrating problem in userpage wikilink When replying to a topic or another reply, the editor being replied to is named with a wikilink which appears to go their user page. However, the actual link to the user page is appended as a subpage of the Flow page itself. In the attached screenshot, the link to my username in Quiddity's reply points to: Wikipedia:Co-op/Mentorship_match/User:I JethroBT when it should point to: User:I JethroBT
Created attachment 16409 [details] Another instance of the same problem, different username.
Clarification-- the links actually point to: Wikipedia:Co-op/USERPAGE
Okay, I filed in the backlog to get fixed: https://trello.com/c/dUseIpRL Thanks for spotting and reporting it!
I'm guessing this is related to the subpage location... yup, same bug in recent[1] posts at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Flow/Developer_test_page and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Beta_Features/Hovercards [1] At least as far back as August 28. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Rwe2bbl97s2pqih8#flow-post-s1au438v79107y3m
Yes the subpages combined with parsoid's decision to always output relative links is causing this issue. For now i've added an adjustment to our redlink'ing code to just replace all anchor's rather than just redlinks so you get default MW behavior instead of the parsoid relative links.
