'''Wine is not an orphan''' 2002-02-15
'''Computer freezing 2002-02-14 Gregorian'''
 
[[special:LonelyPages]] lists [[Wine Is Not an Emulator]] as an orphan, when in fact, [http://www.wikipedia.com/wiki/special:whatlinkshere&target=Wine_Is_Not_an_Emulator its 'Pages that link here' page] shows that [[Wine]] links to it.
What's the deal?

'''Computer freezing''' 2002-02-14 Gregorian'''
 
I've given up trying to read [[Anti-Americanism]] without my computer freezing. This has happened with other pages, including the 'last 250 changes' page and this bug reports page. Will someone please tell me whether or not the page [[Anti-Americanism]] takes into account the fact that according to NPR, Salon.com and others W. did not give money to the Taliban for the drug war, assuming the Taliban would not have spent money on the humanitarian causes we did fund? Also, will someone tell me if you've fixed the bug or thought of a way I can fix it at my end? You can reach me at Dan@discordia.zzn.com -- [[user:Dan]]
 
'''Wrong links with cross-language links''' 2002-02-05'''
 
On pages with cross language links, like [[Table tennis]], all the links on the page show as external links, even though they're to Wikipedia articles.
Line 17 ⟶ 23:
<b>14 Feb</b> I add the name [[Georgi Konstantinovich Zhukov]] to <b>Major figures of World War Two</b> on the [[World_War_II]] page, hit save and scroll down to check it is there, it isn't, I hit refresh and I get a edit conflict.
 
'''11 Feb, Nested HTML tables do not work.''' 2002-02-11

It seems the wiki parser goes into "table mode" when it sees a &lt;table&gt; and exits table mode when it sees a &lt;/table&gt;. Instead it should increment a table nesting integer for each &lt;table&gt; and decrement it for each &lt;/table&gt; so that it can keep track of nesting levels. --[[user:Eob]]
 
Example:
Line 39 ⟶ 47:
:Just your luck, I'm rewriting the HTML-munging code at this moment, and the new code shows your table perfectly. Ought to be in place in the next day or two, along with some other bug fixes. --[[user:Brion VIBBER|Brion VIBBER]]
 
'''Can't edit a redirected entry''' - 2002-02-12 Feb
I cannot edit the link for [[Juggler]]. It gets redirected to [[Juggling]]. On the Juggling page I click on the (redirected from [[Juggler]]) link but end up on the same page. Could someone try this out and let me know if the problem is specific to my OS/browser combination (MS/IE6)? --[[user:MarkReid|MarkReid]]
 
Line 60 ⟶ 68:
A third of the articles listed on [[special:WantedPages]] already exist. Clicking on the link to regenerate the page doesn't make them go away.
 
'''Update''' (2002-02-12):
By now, over 70 percent of the [[special:WantedPages|Most Wanted pages]] have been filled.
When I tried to refresh the page to bring in more entries, I got the following error:
Line 70 ⟶ 78:
 
::The timestamp is incorrect and needs to be fixed by someone with access to the database. --[[user:Brion VIBBER|Brion VIBBER]]
 
Still broken as of the morning of 2002-02-15.
Will the next version of the code include sanity checks for a proper timestamp (such as if it's at least two days into the future, reset it now)?
