Exact Duplicate:
Clicking on tags with wildcards gives you a blank page
I think since yesterday links in the interesting and ignored tags sections that include wildcards changed their behaviour to the following:
python* -> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/python*
That page obviously doesn't exist and I'm getting a blank page. Wouldn't the original behaviour that linked to: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/python be more useful?
Edit: after reading this answer and following re-adding advice, I can confirm that re-adding works until page is reloaded. So it clearly is a bug.
Edit2: this is not a duplicate of Searching for a tag containing * breaks. I'm not searching for anything. These are links in interesting/ignored tags sections! And the change has happened sometimes yesterday. The previous questions have to do with completely different issues. Please open this question.
Edit3: this is not a duplicate many times over. The
python* linked to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/python
now it links to: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/python*
How is it a duplicate?
here is the except form Kyle's answer:
When you click on a wildcard tag, it does not (and never has) taken you to a list of questions with tags that match that wildcard.
(highlighting mine). Yes, Kyle, it never has taken you to a list of question that match that wildcard. But it has taken you to the one single tag (python in this case). What is it if not a regression in usability is beyond me.
