      Imported MediaWiki Redirect with anchor ignores hash

      After importing a MediaWiki instance I noticed on a page redirect where the target link includes an anchor (to link to a specific part of a page), the hash is ignored.

      I see there is already support for anchor linking on the synonym edit screen, so this doesn't sound too big of a deal to fix? Nevertheless there are just a few of these kinds of imported redirect pages on my wiki so it that much of a hassle to update them manually for the time being.

      You may refer to the annotated screenshot (attached) for a clearer idea.

      Fixed in the next release.

      For MediaWiki > 1.9, the importer was actively merging the # to the target name, rather than applying it towards the section field. I wonder if this part of the importer was written prior to May 2014, when vw_redirect.section was separated out, and was overlooked as needing to be updated to reflect that change.

      Also fixed: for MediaWiki < 1.9, the importer was incorrectly pointing all redirects towards the wiki index.
