Description

When editing in source mode, the initial edit summary that contains the section name only strips the first wikilink. For example when editing the heading == [[B]] [[B]] [bitcoin:foo bar] [bitcoin:foo bar] == the summary /* B [[B]] bar [bitcoin:foo bar] */ is produced instead of /* B B bar bar */ which is produced by the non-visual edit form.
