Why not just make a template containing {{ping|first
user|second user|third user|...}}
Your issue is almost certainly that the pipes aren't being tokenized
as argument separators when they come from a transcluded template.
(Its the same reason that {{!}} works in tables, except in reverse).
You do not check one by one. Just try what I suggested.

I didn't check one by one, but calling directly the ping template with
all the parameters will work while calling ping with a template which
transclusion provide the same string, so "Amqui|Ariel1024|…" won't work.

Hi. Is there any chance for really forbidden characters? For example, did

In a nutshell, the goal is to be able to ping a group of user on meta.
so ideally, you just type something like {{ping|my_group}}
But as ping and the underlying
Hi, Moriel.
Well, I see your point, but I still think it should be done. You spoke
about do this, do that, and I told, in one of the paragraphs, about the
case it isn't possible to reproduce the bug. So that what I suggest. Let's
decide that my proposition isn't rejected yet, but just stalled.
I see your idea here, Igal, but I don't think it's necessary.
Developers usually have pretty good tools to see where a bug came from (for
example, we have a tool called "git bisect"[1] that allows us to analyze
not just which release the bug was introduced in, but a specific commit to
"blame" for
