Hello,
I have a question regarding redirects. Redirects like "#redirect [[Documentation]]" works fine, when I go to this page I'm automatically redirected to the right one, whereas redirects to other openSUSE wikis seem not to work as expected.
Just an example: http://ru.opensuse.org/Участник:Mlasars This page contains "#redirect [[:en:User:Mlasars]]", but when I come to this page I don't _automatically_ get to the corresponding http://en.opensuse.org/User:Mlasars, I have to click on a link!
Please confirm or not whether it's wrong, then I'll file a bug.
Well, it's default mediawiki behaviour to work like that; that is, REDIRECT doesn't work for interwiki links, since it may confuse users (from a mediawiki point-of-view). There's not many reasons for it to be enabled for the openSUSE wiki, but it can be done with an option if necessary. Regards, Francis Giannaros
