WP markup reference problem

The wikipedia markup tag creates an article reference that creates a new article and doesn't reference the actual article. Not sure how to fix. --Dgamey 14:36, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

In all three cases you've mentioned this, the link syntax [[wp:pagename|pagename]] seems to create a working link for me. For example, [[wp:heapsort|heapsort]] creates link heapsort, which as I check preview, links to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/heapsort, which exists. Where does the link point for you? --Michael Mol 15:08, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

He's (probably) referring to the link inside the wikipedia box. The issue is that the box was added when the page was called just “Heapsort”, so the auto-link creation worked then, but after the rename of this page into its systematic form it no longer works. I think this is fixable by adding a suitable parameter to the {{wikipedia}} template use. (I think I fixed this on another page already…) –Donal Fellows 08:23, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
