Diacritics in talk pages permalinks cause comments to not being found
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

This problem was noticed first at German Wikipedia, with a permalink inbolving a ö. I ran some test at French Wikipedia, as French language has diacritics too.

I took a pair of topics on https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikip%C3%A9dia:Le_Bistro/25_janvier_2024. These messages were transcluded to https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikip%C3%A9dia:Le_Bistro earlier this week. I emulated the case of a user who accessed and got access to the message when they were on the main page.

According to @matmarex:

ö is double-encoded in the API request. Probably easily fixable

I'm looking for other cases, and I'm sure any language with diacritics will observe this quite serious issue.

For Tech News:

Talk pages permalinks that included diacritics were malfunctioning. This has been fixed.

Tacsipacsi subscribed.Feb 2 2024, 1:48 PM

I think the Tech News entry should mention non-Latin-script languages as well, because they’ve had an even bigger problem: on Latin-script wikis like French or German, more or less of the links were broken, while on non-Latin-script ones like Chinese or Russian, basically all links.
