But this link is valid as you can see. Why does this happen?

But there should be a general solution for this. Is it a MediaWiki bug or should the bot know about all distinctions made on WP-Projects? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Andre Engels (a_engels) Date: 2008-09-14 12:08 Message: It has to do with the zh-traditional/zh-simplified distinction. In normal MediaWiki usage, both the simplified and the traditional orthography of Chinese work, but the bot uses [[Special:Export]], which only works for simplified Chinese. If you change the link from [[zh:]] to [[zh:]], you still go to the same page, but the link will work for the bot as well. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=603138&aid=211009…
