This example is apparently coming from a short description override:
{{short description|Canadian regional airline owned by [[WestJet Airlines, Ltd]] .}}
@bearND manually edited this particular article to remove the wiki text from the description...
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=WestJet_Encore&type=revision&diff=860011406&oldid=860000062&diffmode=source
... but manually editing individual articles could become a whack-a-mole game.
Is this a rare issue or are there hundreds or thousands of such occurrences?
We may want to make the description documentation more clearly state that descriptions should be plain text.
Are there other ways we could prevent this from happening?
