Description:
[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pinus_edulis&oldid=212833839 This] redirect should be parsed as horribly broken, not as a redirect to a category:
The text of that page is:
#REDIRECT [[Colorado Pinyon]
{{R from scientific name}}
[[Category:Symbols of New Mexico]]
i.e. the true target of the redirect is not properly closed. The text is syntactically incorrect, and should be parsed as such. Unfortunately, Mediawiki parses this as a redirect to [[:Category:Symbols of New Mexico]], which is completely unintuitive, and certainly not what was intended.
