A user on de.wp has transwiki imported the page [[sv:s:t Olofsholm]], but pages with a s: at the begin are invalid on de.wp (wikisource interwiki). Over the api we have found the page id: https://de.wikipedia.org/?curid=6666199 A sysop will delete that page with the api, which allow the use of a page id instead of a title. Please give a hint for invalid titles while importing and skip that page. The import is at the moment possible, when using a target namespace. Thanks.

Small correction: It's not the s: that makes trouble, it's the fact that the page title starts with a lowercase letter. This seems to be valid on sv-wikisource (and I see nothing amiss with that), but (as you know) it's not valid, or rathe disabled on wikipedia. Now, the import has created the filename precisely as it's been told, with a lowercase 't', but every action we try on this (API aside, which can use the page ID) uses a 'normalized' title, so it becomes a 'T'. Unforunately, that page doesn't exist, so it's merely impossible to do anything with this file (again, not counting the API).
