Parameters should not contain links in MediaWiki:Movepage-moved
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

The parameters of [[MediaWiki:Movepage-moved]] (which replaces [[MediaWiki:Pagemovedtext]]) contain links, which make it impossible to add other links. For example, '[[Special:Whatlinkshere/$1]]' breaks because it becomes '[[Special:Whatlinkshere/[[page title]]]]'.

This makes it impossible to provide instructions for templates like {{soft redirect}}, or provide useful links like incoming links, delete, revert, et cetera.
