I.e.: How to suppress substitution/replacement of characters with its html entities in a MediaWiki link?
I need to insert a link looking like this, pipes (|) included, into a MediaWiki article:
http://www.somesite.asdf/#|param1|param2|param3
The target site does not accept %7C or | as pipe-substitutes in its URL. Ergo, the following URLs are invalid:
http://www.somesite.asdf/#%7Cparam1%7Cparam2%7Cparam3
http://www.somesite.asdf/#|param1|param2|param3
When I type the link into the MediaWiki-article like:
http://www.somesite.asdf/#|param1|param2|param3
... it results in a link pointing to:
http://www.somesite.asdf/#%7Cparam1%7Cparam2%7Cparam3
, which is not valid.
Any suggestions?
That is not a valid URI; per RFC 3986, an URI consists of the characters ALPHA / DIGIT / "-" / "." / "_" / "~" / ":" / "/" / "?" / "#" / "[" / "]" / "@" / "!" / "$" / "&" / "'" / "(" / ")" / "*" / "+" / "," / ";" / "="; everything else must be percent-encoded. MediaWiki automatically corrects invalid URLs (as would any other CMS, probably), so if this wiki is owned by someone else, you are out of luck. If it is yours, you can use some method to avoid the built-in HTML processing (e. g. enable the <html> tag); make sure you know what you are doing, this usually has security consequences.
