Change in MediaWiki:Editing notice to a links does not  parse

Hi,


When I tried to add a internal link (related to [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing]])  to MediaWiki:Editing, it did not parse as shown in attachment.  


*Exact edit  difference which I tried https://mr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=मिडियाविकी%3AEditing&diff=1200554&oldid=44085 the result is shown in the attachment.


*The purpose of edit was to request users to give a try to VisualEditor and report input issues . (Issues related to usability of Marathi Devnagari script are very crucial to us )


I am not sure whether this a normal limitation of MediaWiki messages  and so not sure whether this will be accepted as a bug.

But still prefered to report this bug since it is simmiller problem of parsing which I observed in Bug no 45195 also and just prefered to keep developers informed.

Thanks and regards

> How to see what's on the screenshot? This is missing steps... 

*[[MediaWiki:Editing]] message (Current text:Editing $1) is visible at the top of every wiki page when you  are editing any wiki page.

* So the given screen shot will be visible on all wiki pages while editing if you save the given edit diff https://mr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=मिडियाविकी%3AEditing&diff=1200554&oldid=44085 on any test wiki


** (My impression is MediaWiki messages work simmiller to Templates. If template:ABC is having internal link [[PQR]] and template:ABC is included in Template:XYZ usually internal link [[PQR]] of template:ABC will parse through Template:XYZ , What I suppose/doubt is,  If MediaWiki:ABC has internal link  [[PQR]] and MediaWiki:ABC is getting included in MediaWiki:XYZ unlike templates MediaWiki messages are not parsing internal link of another MediaWiki message.That is my pure guess you(Developers) are the right people to inform what is supposed to be expected behaviour for MediaWiki messages,and the reported behaviour is matching with expected behaviour or not)

*https://mr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%E0%A4%AE%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%A1%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%AF%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%B5%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%95%E0%A5%80:Sitenotice&diff=prev&oldid=1201270 It is the same text parsing through the internal links in different MediaWiki message.

HTML may be having minor issue on layout side but parsing of internal link is different issue I suppose.

Comment 6 Andre Klapper 2013-09-23 13:41:15 UTC
The issue in comment 0 was about a link not being parsed and instead [[]] is literally shown. My confusion probably arised from the fact that you had changed https://mr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=मिडियाविकी:Editing already, so I asked how to see this problem myself and to provide steps.

MediaWiki:Editing neither exists on en.wp or fr.wp and was removed in 2007.

As the issue was originally about https://mr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%E0%A4%AE%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%A1%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%AF%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%B5%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%95%E0%A5%80%3AEditing&diff=1200554&oldid=44085 which is totally wrong HTML I don't see any valid bug reported here.

If the problem still happens with *valid* HTML, please reopen this bug report and link to the revision of MediaWiki:Editing that shows the problem. Thanks.
