Steps to replicate the issue:
- Upload a file via Special:UploadWizard
- Give "These are entirely my own works" as a source
- See the file page.
What happens?:
The author is given as "[[User:Example|Example]]" putting the whole wikitext syntax again as the label of the link for the author. In wikitext this is:
[[User:Example|[[User:Example|Example]]]]
Most recent example: File:Jamʻīyat dār al-ḥaḍānah bi-al-Iskandarīyah in Al Sayed Mohamed Karim Street 02.jpg.
UploadWizard has started this behavior on 16 October 2024 between 16:42 and 18:41 UTC for me and it still persists today.
Apparently not all files uploaded with UploadWizard as own works at Special:NewFiles are concerned.
What should have happened instead?:
The author should simply be given as "Example", in wikitext this is:
[[User:Example|Example]]
