Description Jarry1250 2012-03-22 23:24:51 UTC 
As with title, really. The "preview" attached to the output of Special:ExpandTemplates (when the context title is not specified) includes useless section edit links that do nothing when you click on them. I realise you may want to preview with edit links (although I can't think why you'd be using the special page for this), but in the vast majority of cases they're surely just annoying; where they are necessary, a context title could and should be provided.

My proposal, then: suppress section edit links where context title is not specified.
