-Robustness tests

+Self links
+----------

 
 

-### Enabling/disabling the plugin
+If a page contains a WikiLink to itself, ikiwiki does not normally
+turn that into a hyperlink. However, if a translated page contains a
+WikiLink to itself, a hyperlink is inserted, at least with the default
+`po_link_to` the link points to the English version of the page. Is there a
+good reason for that to be done? --[[Joey]] 

 
 

-* enabling the plugin with `po_translatable_pages` set to blacklist: **OK**
-* enabling the plugin with `po_translatable_pages` set to whitelist: **OK**
-* enabling the plugin without `po_translatable_pages` set: **OK**
-* disabling the plugin: **OK**
+Language display order
+----------------------

 
 

-### Changing the plugin config
+Jonas pointed out that one might want to control the order that links to
+other languages are listed, for various reasons. Currently, there is no
+order, as `po_slave_languages` is a hash. It would need to be converted
+to an array to support this. (If twere done, twere best done quickly.)
+--[[Joey]] 

 
 

-* adding existing pages to `po_translatable_pages`: **OK**
-* removing existing pages from `po_translatable_pages`: **OK**
-* adding a language to `po_slave_languages`: **OK**
-* removing a language from `po_slave_languages`: **OK**
-* changing `po_master_language`: **OK**
-* replacing `po_master_language` with a language previously part of
-  `po_slave_languages`: needs two rebuilds, but **OK** (this is quite
-  a perverse test actually)
+Duplicate %links ?
+------------------

 
 

-### Creating/deleting/renaming pages
+I notice code in the scan hook that seems to assume
+that %links will accumulate duplicate links for a page.
+That used to be so, but the bug was fixed. Does this mean
+that po might be replacing the only link on a page, in error? 
+--[[Joey]] 

 
 

-All cases of master/slave page creation/deletion/rename, both via RCS
-and via CGI, have been tested.
+Name of toplevel index page
+---------------------------

 
 

-### Misc
+Normally at the top index page of a wiki, you see the wiki name at
+the top. However, at the top *translated* index page, you see something
+like "index.da". --[[Joey]]

+Pagespecs
+---------

 
 

-Misc. bugs
-----------
+I was suprised that, when using the map directive, a pagespec of "*"
+listed all the translated pages as well as regular pages. That can 
+make a big difference to an existing wiki when po is turned on,
+and seems generally not wanted.
+(OTOH, you do want to match translated pages by
+default when locking pages.) --[[Joey]]
+
+Edit links on untranslated pages
+--------------------------------
+
+If a page is not translated yet, the "translated" version of it
+displays wikilinks to other, existing (but not yet translated?)
+pages as edit links, as if those pages do not exist. 
+
+That's really confusing, especially as clicking such a link
+brings up an edit form to create a new, english page.
+
+This is with po_link_to=current. With default, it doesn't happen..
+
+Double commits of po files
+--------------------------
+
+When adding a new english page, the po files are created, committed,
+and then committed again. The second commit makes this change:
+
+       -"Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8\n"
+       -"Content-Transfer-Encoding: ENCODING"
+       +"Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8\n"
+       +"Content-Transfer-Encoding: ENCODING\n"
+
+Same thing happens when a change to an existing page triggers a po file
+update.
