I can't replicate it. Hovering over != just gets a little popup, not an error

I'll try to get back to you guys tommorow

I cannot reproduce with a clean redirect link. (in Firefox 65.0.1 (Linux) nor in Chromium 71)
You can Test it at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Quiddity_(WMF)/sandbox&oldid=885582095
My result is a proper HTTP 302, and fully functional PagePreview:

@Aklapper - I normally do, I didn't report this immediately and was in a bit of a rush. I'll try and work out what went on later.

I've been crazy busy but I will work out what caused the issue
