Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Dashiva (magnusrk) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Casing problem with mediawiki_message
Initial Comment: mediawiki_message in wikipedia.py uses the PHP view of Special:Allmessages as fallback if the specific message page is missing (common in older MW versions).
However, this only registers messages with the first letter lowercase, while regular page access is first letter CI. There are six calls to mediawiki_message using uppercased first letters in wikipedia.py alone, probably many more elsewhere (based on current HEAD).
mediawiki_message should lowercase the first letter of the requested message name before doing the lookup.

No, the bug was in the Site method mediawiki_message(), not the deprecated module mediawiki_messages.py. Bug fixed in r4947.
