Example:
- https://doomwiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AWhatLinksHere&target=Soul+sphere&namespace=0&invert=1
Expected outcome:
- [[Template:Did you know]] is included in the list of links.
Actual outcome:
- [[Template:Did you know]] is not included in the list of links, but in its wikitext we find
<option>'''Did you know''' that the [[soul sphere]] was originally supposed to be an "extra life" [[item|powerup]], before the concept of lives was dropped during [[Development of Doom|development]]?</option>
Environment:
- MediaWiki 1.27.4
- PHP 5.6.30-0+deb8u1 (fpm-fcgi)
- MySQL 5.5.55-0+deb8u1
- Extension:RandomSelection 2.2.2
Links inside <option> tags are rendered on some pageviews and not rendered on others. Special:WhatLinksHere is treating them as never rendered, which leads to incomplete maintenance tasks.
