Description
When requesting a URL with [[<page>]] or {{<page>}} the bot usually doesn't show the page embed. However, this is inconsistent when the bot has to "think".
Expected result:
[[Template:Babel]], {{Babel}}, and {{Template:Babel}} all return the same link without any embeds shown
Actual result:
The embed is visible when using {{Template:Babel}}
Affected versions:
- Fandom MediaWiki pages (Tested on multiple wikis, including CC)
- wikipedia.org
Additional remarks:
- The bot "thinks" (reacts with ⌛ ) before sending the link with the embed visible
- The bot responds with the link for the page
Babel(instead ofTemplate:Babel) when requesting{{Babel}}on wikipedia.org

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Reproduce the three Babel link syntaxes on the affected MediaWiki sites, then trace the bot's link-resolution and embed handling; done means all three return the same link without an embed and avoid resolving {{Babel}} incorrectly.
