Template talk:DescriptionLinks

taginfo broken for tags with :

For example taginfo from https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:teryt:simc links to https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/teryt%253Asimc rather than https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/teryt:simc Mateusz Konieczny (talk) 01:40, 28 October 2017 (UTC) It seems that https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Parser_function#URLENCODE may and should be skipped - is there any reason for it?

There's NO such "%253A" in the generated URL and the link is working correctly (and correct for the URL standnard). There was a problem previously becaues of the URL path encoding with some tags using non-ASCII characters and this was fixed. However I can also unencode the "%25" back to ":" if this ever causes problems (it does not on TagInfo: this is stil lstandard URL path encoding, which is really used by web browsers internally when it canonicanlizes an URL path to perform actual web requests).

Yes the URLENCODE is needed, but it is not the URL encoding but a correct "PATH" encoding.

Because of your request, I may still replace "%25" by ":" here but this is not an issue for TagInfo: Can you provide an examlple where it does not work as intended, given this is web standard?

So there's no issue at all with tags that contain a ":". — Verdy_p ^(talk) 10:13, 28 October 2017 (UTC)

Now it works correctly. Maybe because https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Template:DescriptionLinks&diff=1518846&oldid=1356662 triggered refreshing caches Mateusz Konieczny (talk) 17:04, 28 October 2017 (UTC)

It's broken again, on the newly created page: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:ref:US:EPA -- JesseFW (talk) 06:09, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
