Internal link not resolved in re-checking updates
When I submit an internal link e.g. in adding Trivia, the link is not resolved to the linked object during "re-checking updates". Before submission, even in the full details, it lists the numbers, see example below. Only when tracking the submitted contribution, a mistake would be visible.
