Make SetSiteLink special page retain POSTed information on error
completed by: Jared Flores
mentors: Addshore, Lydia Pintscher
The Wikibase extension ( that runs http://www.wikidata.org ) has a special page called SetSiteLink which can be see at https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:SetSiteLink or for testing at test.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:SetSiteLink
When POSTing bad information to the special page an error is shown but the data is no longer retained in the html form. The task is to make the form retain this information after errors are displayed.
See this bug report for more information / queries.
