The page under "Maintenence" throws the following "wfSpecialDisambiguation is broken. Link tables have changed... " --Nzpcmad 15:05, 7 Oct 2004 (EDT)

Yes. Apparently someone found that that function didn't work, and the code now throws an error rather than fixing it! I'll see if I can figure out the problem, but I may not patch it until the next MediaWiki release. --Evan 15:14, 7 Oct 2004 (EDT)

OK but I'd rather it was fixed sooner rather than later as I currently fix about 5 links a week and it's going to build up --Nzpcmad 19:40, 7 Oct 2004 (EDT)

I just checked, and this is fixed in the 1.4 version of MediaWiki. I can't back-port the fix, since the database layout of Mediawiki is significantly changed. I don't know the expected release time for 1.4. --Evan 18:08, 8 Oct 2004 (EDT)

Fixed with 1.4.3 upgrade. Jpatokal 13:06, 14 May 2005 (EDT)
