I hoped the test would explain, but it didn't :sweat_smile: I went and had a
look. I think I understand now:
- Changeset tag values go through tag2link.
- tag2link feeds from this list:
https://github.com/JOSM/tag2link/blob/master/index.json
- Each separate tag in a `hashtags` key in a changeset gets applied this
substitution rule:
```
{
"key": "Key:hashtags",
"url": "https://resultmaps.neis-one.org/osm-changesets?comment=$1",
"source": "osmwiki:P8",
"rank": "normal"
},
```
- That link expects the text to replace `$1` not to have a hashtag.
- But we apply the substitution verbatim, passing the hashtag.
- We need to remove the hashtag for that substitution to work, which is what
you are doing here.
Your solution would fail if we had a similar tag2link rule that did expect the
`#`, as it applies to all rules, not only `Key:hashtags`. Do we know of any
such rule? I'm guessing the probability is low, as `#` has a special meaning in
URLs as you say.
