Description
within Markdown, a Wikitext link is displayed as expected, e.g. [[Raspberry_Pi_Zigbee_Home_Controller|Zigbee Home Controller]] links to the page Raspberry_Pi_Zigbee_Home_Controller and display Zigbee Home Controller in the style of a link.
however, within a table, Wikitext links are processed/displayed differently:
| MAC ID | Description |
|---|---|
| AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF | [[Raspberry Pi]] 4 4GB currently used as [[Raspberry_Pi_Zigbee_Home_Controller|Zigbee Home Controller]] |
- the first link is displayed correctly
- the second link is not displayed as link at all, it prints out the two open square parenthesis and stops at the vertical line, which is probably interpreted as column boundary?

Research direction
Reproduce the issue with the Markdown table example, focusing on how Wikitext links containing a vertical bar are handled inside table cells. Inspect the table and link parsing paths; done means both links render as links without treating the vertical bar as a column boundary.
