Bug ID: 73137
Summary: Wikia family nicepath is incorrect, but is functional
Product: Pywikibot
Version: core (2.0)
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: trivial
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General
Assignee: Pywikipedia-bugs(a)lists.wikimedia.org
Reporter: jayvdb(a)gmail.com

All of the Wikia families nicepath() values are incorrect for some of their
sites.
$ python pwb.py shell
Welcome to the Pywikibot interactive shell!
>> import pywikibot
>> s = pywikibot.Site('en', 'lyricswiki')
>> s.nicepath()
'/wiki/'
The same occurs for families wikia and wowwiki.
However the nicepath should be ''
http://lyrics.wikia.com/Category:Artists_A
Likewise the main Wikia and main WOW sites do not have a /wiki/ prefix
http://www.wikia.com/Main_Page
http://www.wowwiki.com/Portal:Main
However Wikia has a redirect on the server from /wiki/ to / for those sites.
However the /wiki/ is needed for some sites.
http://cs.wow.wikia.com/wiki/Hlavn%C3%AD_strana works
But
http://cs.wow.wikia.com/Hlavn%C3%AD_strana redirects to
http://cs.wow.wikia.com/wiki/Speci%C3%A1ln%C3%AD:Our
So keeping the nicepath as /wiki/ is necessary, and we have to hope Wikia has
redirects in place for all wikis where the wiki nice titles are not located at
/wiki/Foo
