Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 9 Private: No Submitted By: Melancholie (melancholie) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Undo decodeEsperantoX removal (r5563)
Initial Comment: I do not know why siebrand had problems with decodeEsperantoX(), see http://eo.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sunfloro&diff=1775705&oldi... - but now I do have that problem (not with interwiki.py, but with featured.py and replace.py)!
See http://eo.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Vitamino_C&diff=prev&oldid...
Characters are replaced to gxx, sxx etc., making templates unusable etc...
As decodeEsperantoX() had been used for a very long time, please undo that change: http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/pywikipedia/trunk/pywikipedia/wikipedia.py?r...

Seems partially fixed: 1. http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/pywikipedia/trunk/pywikipedia/families/wikip... 2. http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/pywikipedia/trunk/pywikipedia/families/wikip...
But yet see: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2030278&gro...

Maybe this was needed before 2004 when Wikimedia wiki didn't had UTF-8 as encoding!?
Do you know whether the example "Bordeauxx instead Bordeaux" that was mentioned does work, currently?
If yes, I would say we could remove all the remaining de/encodeEsperantoX() cruft, too. (description, *def* (function itself)).

encodeEsperantoX calls were removed in r5670.
I'm leaving this open, since I bet there was a reason for that X writing convention. Does removing it complety is problematic ?

The problem seems to be that decodeEsperantoX() has been removed, but encodeEsperantoX() remains.
So the encodeEsperantoX() parts currently produce 'xx'! Either revert the SVN change, or also ?remove? encodeEsperantoX().
