Description Merlijn van Deen (test) 2012-11-27 14:56:18 UTC

Transcluding a non-existing redirect does not yield a clear error message:

1) transcluding a page P with contents #REDIRECT[[non-existing-page]] will give a link to P,
2) transcluding a page P with contents #REDIRECT[[P]] will return an empty result,
3) transcluding a page P with contents #REDIRECT[[P2]], where P2 is again a redirect, will return an empty result.

See the parser tests added in:
