Submitting after section editing does not forward to the correct anchor if section name contains mark-up
Closed, DuplicatePublic

Description

Author: timwi

Description:
When submitting an edit after editing a section, MediaWiki forwards to an anchor
with the entire section name, including mark-up, encoded in it. However, on the
actual page, the anchors are generated without mark-up, thus the anchor fails to
work.

Example:

  1. Visit URL above.
  2. Submit edit.

ACTUAL RESULT:
You are forwarded to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_personal_pronouns#The_pronoun_.27.27on.27.27

EXPECTED RESULT:
Forwarding to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_personal_pronouns#The_pronoun_on
