Summary: subst:PAGENAME in reference-URL doesn't work
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: Templates
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
It is possible to create a URL with the syntax
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/{{subst:PAGENAME}}] and get the correct link to
the appropriate place.
However if this link is put within <ref> tags, that 'template' call is not
parsed at all. It is however not the case that URLs, template calls and ref
tags inherently dislikes each other as it still is possible to drop the subst:
and get the intended behavior. That is,
<ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/{{PAGENAME}}]</ref> works as intended.
Please see e.g.
http://http://sv.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=Wiktionary:Sandl%C3%A5dan&oldid=535712,
and in particular the first "reference".
