Unlinkable

Links in categories etc to this page do not work (see e.g. Category:mul:Computing). Should this be moved to e.g. Unsupported titles/OBJ? – Nixinova [‌T|C] 04:54, 3 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

It works fine . I think it is only your issue. Try another browser. --Octahedron80 (talk) 05:07, 3 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
I tried Firefox and Safari (I have a Mac) with the same result: on the category page itself, I can see it when I view the source, but when I use the element inspector, it shows a well-formed anchor tag with empty space where the "" should be. When I select that part of the page, all the other items in the list have an object after the bullet that gets highlighted, but that item doesn't. There seems to be a difference between the rendering of the h3 and the rendering of the anchor tag, so the difference between the category page and your wiki markup here doesn't surprise me.

It is possibly Mac & IOS problem. They used OBJ a lot even in plain text but their users can't see. (I see OBJ in many Facebook/Twitter captions/comments) Perhaps Mac & IOS will remove it when rendering. Windows and Android always see the glyph and the link works normally. --Octahedron80 (talk) 06:55, 3 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
What is the issue with the links of interest?
The respective anchors' href attributes' should have the value: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%EF%BF%BC Anxiolydiot (talk) 02:22, 26 August 2023 (UTC)Reply



add the fact that obj can also be a replacement for unsupported characters in Unicode (I think) Washweans (talk) 05:49, 7 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
