I experience the same problem with MW 1.5.6

I have been using [[:Image:filename.zip|description]] to get descriptions to show up in article content -- but I see that this breaks the 'What Links Here' section on that uploaded file's Image Page. Which I'd rather not break because that's useful information. But seeing Image:myfile.zip in articles is sooo ugly! :-)

Can someone confirm that this is the right behaviour for this version of MW and whether it's been changed in recent releases?

For some time I've been using the following syntax successfuly on Mediawiki 1.5.x: [[Image:document-xyz.pdf | My document XYZ]] which used to produce the following output as a link to the "Image:" page: My document XYZ

Now this doesn't work anymore, at least with mediawiki 1.5.6 and 1.5.7 and for the same syntax I just see this link as if no alias had been given after the pipe: Image:document-xyz.pdf

Is there any reason why I should observe that ? I have noticed that the following alternative syntax works as I want it to work but I wonder if this is the right way to do it (I added a colon at the beginning): [[:Image:document-xyz.pdf | My document XYZ]]

Thanks for your help, Regards,
