It's a real image, but imagemap errors with: (Image:M&BWFAS_Map.jpg)

Using %26 instead of & gives the error: (Image:M%26BWFAS_Map.jpg)

Version: unspecified
Severity: normal

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:MarkAHershberger/Bug35798 only shows "must specify an image..." for uri escaping %26. The other two uses worked.

I don't think we should really allow URI escaped names.

Reopen if you can provide an example of this not working.

It appears the real problem was using an image where the dimensions were too big? No idea why, but it started working once I scaled it down to 3284px. http://mountandblade.wikia.com/wiki/Template:World_Map/With_Fire_%26_Sword
