For the sake of consistency I'll be using Live A Live (remake) for all examples in this post, however this behavior is Wiki-wide.

Most of the links on the "Game Details" sidebar work as intended, namely those which lead to a specific wiki page. The recursive name link, the platform links, the franchise link, and the developer and publisher links all lead to the expected pages when clicked.

However, the Genre and Theme fields, which are supposed to lead to wiki search results, instead only lead to the standard wiki view, showing all games. While I'm sure this worked at some point, it no longer does, and has not for a decent length (whatever change brought it about was almost certainly before my time.) The URL still has search refinements after the TLD (in this case "?genre=5" and "?theme=2"), however, manually inputting a search suggests that these should instead be "?game_filter[genre]=5" and "?game_filter[theme]=2" respectively.
