Hi,
I just set up a MediaWiki 1.12 installation and changed the message MediaWiki:Noarticletext. I tried to embed the special page NewPages{{Special:NewPages/5}}. When I now look at the page MediaWiki:Noarticletext I see the latest additions but when I request a page that does not exist only a link to Special:NewPages/5 is generated but no content is included. My question is how do I encourage the MediaWiki software to parse and execute the embedded Page?
Best, Bernhard
