UploadWizard does not provide anymore link to userpage when uploading own work
Closed, ResolvedPublicBUG REPORT

Description

Steps to replicate the issue (include links if applicable):

  • User uploads media as own work
  • {{Information}} template only reports the name of the user, without the link to the userpage (example)
  • This seems to have started since mid-December 2023 (as soon as 12-13 December to some accounts)

What happens?:
The username included in the {{Information}} template does not automatically link to the userpage.

What should have happened instead?:
The username included in the template should link to the userpage, as it was before the beginning of this bug.

Software version (skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia):

Checked recent uploads via UploadWizard on commons wmf.14 (and re-tested the UploadWizard on commons beta): the author link is present for own work uploads.
