            Bug ID: 58793
           Summary: [Regression] Previously valid fullurl with empty
                    article name now broken
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.23-git
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Parser
          Assignee: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
          Reporter: mr.h...@gmx.de

This short syntax:

{{fullurl:de:|diff=117674067}}
{{fullurl::|diff=117674067}}

did work without a problem. It created this perfectly valid URL:

//de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=&diff=117674067

Users and scripts are relying on this syntax. It was used on several pages.
They are all broken now. This makes this a regression. Please make it work
again. Thanks. From what I see there shouldn't be a strong reason to block the
syntax if the page name is empty. The currently broken output (it tries to find
a template with that name) is far worse.
