Help:Lint errors/wikilink-in-extlink

This linter error is reported when a wikilink is used inside an external link. This usage is not semantically correct and will not render as expected since it is not possible to nest a link inside a link.

Example
This is [[Google]'s search page]

The generated HTML for this is:        As you see, the HTML output has a pair of links adjacent to each other, the first one being an external link and the second one a wiki link and includes text that is not linked at all. Presumably, this output is not what editors intended and the wikitext needs to be fixed to remove the semantically incorrect link nesting.
