List of steps to reproduce (step by step, including full links if applicable):
Pasting original explanation by Raidarr in https://phabricator.miraheze.org/T8559 due to the complexity:
"On Qualitipedia central, I tried an experiment to circumvent a blog extension's blog creation page because there was no apparent way to turn off date generation. I decided to make a new page that would a) not do this and b) consider doing a little extra, but I got as far as an input box on this now-deleted page (can be restored in full if needed). I ambitiously cobbled together thoughts based on Meta's substituted preloads for adoption requests using MediaWiki's InputBox extension guide for various inputs. I didn't expect it all to work, but I expected it to run and to adjust as needed.
The original trial infobox was this:
<inputbox> type=create width=72 summary=New blog post created editintro=This description is a test. '''Hello.''' Good luck. prefix=Blog: buttonlabel:Create blog break=no preload=Q:CBP/P </inputbox>
That produced this broken page.
Not learning my lesson I decided to trim a few inputs and make this.
<inputbox> type=create width=72 summary=New blog post created prefix=Blog: break=no preload=Q:CBP/P </inputbox>
Then producing this broken page.
At that point I made note of it on discord and deleted the primary page leading to here.
Associated pages are Part 1 Part 2 as standard components in a blog post for top and bottom and the Preload to glue them with blog text input in between the first two. Page editing is fine, even perfect; page posting results in the above. Shortlinks achieved by having Q redirect to the Qualitipedia namespace. I probably tried too many inefficient experimental things at once."

What should have happened instead?:
The page should work normally
