targettitle prameter is ignored in content translation, when starting a translation
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:ContentTranslation?campaign=contributionsmenu&to=el&page=%20&from=en&targettitle=User:ManosHacker/sandbox/
used to guide me to search, find and translate any page in a sandbox subpage of mine, until recently. Targettitle is now ignored, if the source page to translate is not pre-declared and already existing.
If targettitle is declared, after clicking [Start translation] button it should be taken into account, and not be replaced by the original language article title.
