I'm not a heavy contributor to the codex, and I don't watch this list
religiously, so please forgive me if this has been answered elsewhere.<br>
<br>
I noticed a few days back that it seem like the internal linking style
of the Codex has changed, I'm guessing since the roll out of MediaWiki
1.5.7.<br>
<br>
If you look at my "desktop"
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://codex.wordpress.org/User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop">http://codex.wordpress.org/User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop</a>) you can see what
I mean:<br>
<ul>
<li>A link I added before 1.5.7 uses the syntax
[[User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/get_settings|get_settings]] and points to
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://codex.wordpress.org/User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/get_settings">http://codex.wordpress.org/User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/get_settings</a></li>
<li>A link I added just a few days ago uses the syntax
[[User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/TinyMCE|TinyMCE]] and sort of points to
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://codex.wordpress.org/index.php?title=User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/TinyMCE&action=edit">http://codex.wordpress.org/index.php?title=User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/TinyMCE&action=edit</a>.
By sort of I mean that MediaWiki seems to think that the page doesn't
exist and thus provides the default "edit" link, but when you follow
the link you get to my page in edit mode but with content. If you go
to <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://codex.wordpress.org/User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/TinyMCE">http://codex.wordpress.org/User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/TinyMCE</a> you get
the actual page.</li>
</ul>
As I recall from my own install of MediaWiki, there was a bit to do
with friendly urls, but it's been a while so I don't recall for sure.
That was also 1.5.1 (I think). Relying on that vague memory though,
leads me to believe that the new Codex is using the not-nice urls by
default.<br>
<br>
Has anyone else noted this? Is there a running discussion I haven't
seen?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance for any insight...<br>
