MediaWiki:Colon-separator

Should apperently redirect to MediaWiki:Colon-separator. But that one behaves strangely:

a{{int:Colon-separator}}b

->a

b

Works fine when I use my default interface language (French) but with uselang=en, I gets broken up into two lines. --Zolo (talk) 08:27, 1 June 2012 (UTC)

This:

a{{int:Colon-separator}}b

gives:

a

b

Thanks, but it does not work (or perhaps, it just needs some times to update..). --Zolo (talk) 10:45, 1 June 2012 (UTC)

It works for me (clear cache) --Z 10:50, 1 June 2012 (UTC)

It works now, I had cleared the cache but I guess that was some lag server side too. --Zolo (talk) 11:16, 1 June 2012 (UTC)

This change is causing problems, specifically with the account sign-up form. Kaldari (talk) 17:41, 31 August 2012 (UTC)

I deleted the override, and now it looks like the weird newline behavior has returned for the int: uses :( Kaldari (talk) 17:45, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
