:I was here only to fix an error which I tracked to this module. I might have a look later but as I know nothing about this module I would need to be told exactly what should happen with the above examples which I infer are wrong. Are the examples in the documentation correct? [[User:Johnuniq|Johnuniq]] ([[User talk:Johnuniq|talk]]) 23:41, 21 February 2022 (UTC)

:I'm not wholly convinced that there is anything really wrong with the module. [[!!]] is not a redirect page and it doesn't have a section that the <code>#section</code> fragment can link to. [[WikiPedia]] is a redirect to [[Wikipedia]]. The redirect page does not have a section that the <code>#section</code> fragment can link to; because 'WikiPedia' is a redirect, the module correctly returns the target page [[Wikipedia]]. Yeah, the module documentation says: {{tq| If page-name does not exist or is not a redirect then page-name is returned.}} If that is taken literally then perhaps it is broken. The fragments disappear at [[Module:Redirect#L-8|line 8]].
