Bug ID: 73338
Summary: External link ending in {{subst:Magic}} does not
substitute
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Parser
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Web browser: ---
Mobile Platform: ---
Theory:
You should not be able to save a page and get
Foo {{subst:Anything}} foo
as the resulting wikitext. It shouldn't be *possible*; all {{subst:Anything}}s
that aren't wrapped in nowiki tags ought to be subst'd.
Data:
If you type:
http://example.com/wiki/{{subst:CURRENTDATE}}_{{subst:CURRENTMONTHNAME}}
into a page and save it today, the resulting wikitext will be:
http://example.com/wiki/{{subst:CURRENTDATE}}_November.
This is not bug 2700, whih is about subst failures when wrapped inside ref tags
and similar. This surprising behavior does not involve any tags. It's just a
bare URL by itself.
