Description

Hello,

A problem has been reported on frwiki here.

It is no longer possible to consult frwiki page Spore : Aventures galactiques.

We get the following error message:

Le titre de la page demandée est non valide, vide, ou mal formé s’il s’agit d’un titre inter-langue ou inter-projet. Il contient peut-être un ou plusieurs caractères qui ne peuvent pas être utilisés dans les titres.

This is obviously due to an interwiki code conflict with spore: for https://wikispore.wmflabs.org/.

This article exists, it is listed in Spécial:Index/Spore.

Thank you.

(sorry for my bad English).

Other case reported with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spore:_Galactic_Adventures which can not be moved. Reported on https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Interwiki_map#spore

I'll see if this can be emergency-deployed rather than waiting until monday. Just in case though, scheduled for BACON - Monday, July 06 11:00–12:00 UTC

Per @hashar in #wikimedia-operations, this doesn't warrant an emergency deployment; Will go out during backport and config on monday (@Majavah I put this before your existing patch scheduled for deployment then given the user facing impacts - hope that was okay)

Thank you @DannyS712 for reaching out.

The issue is definitely valid but thanksfully has limited impact (it just affects articles whose title starts with Spore: (which I guess is an issue with MediaWiki itself).

Interwikis are a bit scary, I clearly remember breaking the site due to them and that part of the code is a bit too scary for a week-end deploy.

I will happily assist on Monday and added a note to myself to attend the backport and config window.

@Tractopelle-jaune Peux tu répondre sur frwiki qu'à priori ce sera corrigé Lundi? Et ton anglais est très bien :] https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipédia:Questions_techniques/semaine_27_2020#Wikispore_et_article_commençant_par_«_Spore_:_»
