Description

steps to replicate the issue (include links if applicable):

open https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Trump_v._Internal_Revenue_Service_settlement_agreement (or https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Order_establishing_the_Anti-Weaponization_Fund or https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Order_barring_the_Internal_Revenue_Service_from_investigating_Trump_and_his_family)
click a page link (the little number between the square brackets on the left)

what happens?:
"bad title" error: "The requested page title contains invalid characters: "%3D"."

what should have happened instead?:
open the page link

i'm about 80% sure this is caused by the equals sign being parsed into "%3D" in the url, and then that is erroneously parsed into "%253D"; if you change "%253D" into "%3D", the link works

Hello, this is an on-wiki gadget issue (see edit request at https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/MediaWiki_talk:Gadget-PageNumbers-core.js#Double-encoding_bug_with_=_in_filenames_(phab:T427111)) and not an issue with software that is tracked in Phabricator, therefore it is the wrong place for this.
