Description Purodha Blissenbach 2012-07-24 00:04:16 UTC 
The message MediaWiki:Contest-contest-reminder-page employs the somewhat stupid "goto this page" wording in a link anchor that should be avoided as of https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/I18n#Use_meaningful_link_anchors

Yep, "this page"/"that page"/"here" are the typical errors. www.w3.org/QA/Tips/noClickHere

Hm, interesting. I would have thought that "this page" was acceptable.

Would the simple [[$1]] be preferred?

I think no one has used this extension for two years and I'm doubtful it still works against master. Recommend you do not spend effort on this.
