Description

Given a page with an anchor see the HelpOnMacros page there is an anchor #here (notice that bracketed http url links work) but the following bracketed wiki links as described in HelpOnLinking don't generate correct links '#' is changed to %23 so anchor is not found. Also, we get the leading ? that indicates that the page doesn't exist!

Steps to reproduce

1. do this... (create wiki raw text like below)

 * [wiki:Self:HelpOnMacros#here]  I expected this to find the HelpOnMacros page - not to think it doesn't exist
 * [wiki:Self:HelpOnMacros#here] 
 * [wiki:Self:HelpOnMacros#here same as above, but with custom link to #here]
 * HelpOnMacros#here - not a wiki word (OK)
 * ["HelpOnMacros#here"]

and I expect to see that this known HelpOnMacros page wouldn't be marked as unknown

• HelpOnMacros#here I expected this to find the HelpOnMacros page - not to think it doesn't exist

• HelpOnMacros#here

• same as above, but with custom link to #here

• HelpOnMacros#here - not a wiki word (OK)

• HelpOnMacros#here
