I also met such pages last week.

This is a wider problem than the specific species mentioned. There are multiple flags for this very issue that have been submitted recently. Something is apparently recently broken in the codebase. Hopefully site reads this ands acts to revert whatever change caused the break quickly.

Today, a few minutes ago, the ‘about’ section for Hirundinidae when the iNat site language is Spanish, now loads a EOL page instead of the wikipedia page for a film called swallows as reported above.

Yet another flag with this issue: https://www.inaturalist.org/flags/527839

@tiwane just curious if staff have even seen this. The number of flags on the issue continues to grow, and I dont see an issue on Github for the bug.

Yeah, I noticed it over the weekend. I’ll take a closer look and file something today.

743180-Viola is the Section, it shouldn’t link to https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viooltje , which is the article for the genus. 50829-Viola is the genus and it correctly links to the article. [image]

Incorrect wikipedia page in 'About' or shows EOL page when wiki page exists
