"Fran%C3%A7ois" is an invalid page title.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fran%25C3%25A7ois

Will respond with "Bad title".

This parser function works on titles, not urls. There is no reason for this
function to expect url encoding, it is wikitext/html, not a url.

If we do decoding in this parser function, it means certain titles would have
to be explicitly encoded, that would make things fail.

Marking INVALID, as it is not a bug, it is designed to take valid titles, not
url portions. And making it accept url portions will likely break in unexpected
ways. Just fix the wikitext to pass the actual page name, why would you put url
encodings in wikitext anyway?
