            Status: NEW

Example

Currently, if a user calls mw.util.wikiGetlink()[1] on [[Example]] it will be
returned
"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/undefined";
which is not very useful.

Considering that it is common[2] to have constructs like
 mw.util.wikiGetlink( mw.config.get( 'wgPageName' ) ) + '?foo=bar&baz=meh'
I propose the addition of wgPageName as a default value for the "str" parameter
of this function, so that users coudl then use mw.util.wikiGetlink() on
[[Example]] to get
"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Example";
