Your verb example is a sub-case of my own linking pet peeve: Linking some specific instance of something to a 'generic' article. In your example I'd expect "injured" to link to some article about this specific instance of injury, or at least the specific class of injury.
No it would be better to explicitly mention the type of injury as an undisguised link, never like [[bone fracture|injury]].
It's not just noun->adfoo, it happens with perfectly noun-noun things as well. In your example I would have expected "ping poing player" to link to an article about the specific involved ping pong player.
No, here it would be better to mention the ping pong player's name as an undisguised link, never like [[Glenn Cowan|ping pong player]].
