Description Adam Wight 2014-10-30 08:18:12 UTC

Steps to reproduce:
* Went to my user page, mw:User:Adamw .
* Clicked "Edit" to use the VisualEditor.
* Clicked the thumbnail at the top, to edit.
* Clicked the image title to open the editor dialog.
* Clicked "Choose a different image".
* Pasted the name of an image into the search field, and selected my image.
* Apply changes.
* Save chages to page.

This all seemed to go swimmingly, until I looked at the diff:

The "link" parameter is missing.

Client system: Linux, FF 32.0.3

I gave it a second try, and went to add the missing parameter with VE.  It was not supported anywhere...

Indeed. This is an exceptionally rare piece of wikitext we don't support yet.
