>I keep running into this timout issue - easily URL-editing fixed but it affects the wiki in general.
raising not in the Documentation category - as it affects multiple "Componenents"
>Issue: Whenever a committer lets a wiki edit session timout - eclipse.org inserts a 2nd "Index.php%3Ftitle%3D" in the title.
The fix is to remove the 2nd duplicated text fragment from your wiki URL before you return to editing the page - or you will end up with 2 pages.
Secondary fix is to comment out the text in any secondary pages with "Index.php?title=" as a title prefix and link to the original page.

>A quick www.google scan for ".php%3Ftitle%3DEclipseLink" shows
>I fixed a couple - but the rest need redirects

>The wiki timeout issue is causing a minor fragmentation/duplication of our documentation
We need to fix all the following items - as the base bug is set to WONTFIX

That's odd... the %3F and %3D are simply the encoded values for "?" and "=", respectively. When un-encoded, the the URL resolves properly.

For example: 

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Index.php?title=EclipseLink/Examples/JPA/EclipseLink-ORM.XML

resolves properly to

http://wiki.eclipse.org/EclipseLink/Examples/JPA/EclipseLink-ORM.XML


Maybe an issue with browser-specific encoding or the Apache rewrite mod?

FWIW, I have not seen this in any pages that I edit.

Closing this as we have moved the EL docs from the wiki to HTML.
