I didn't check one by one, but calling directly the ping template with all the parameters will work while calling ping with a template which transclusion provide the same string, so "Amqui|Ariel1024|…" won't work. So, maybe it's the vertical bar "|" which is not interpreted as a parameter separator in this case and the whole string is passed as a single parameter.

Hi. Is there any chance for really forbidden characters? For example, did
you try to check the input characters one by one? Or, maybe the last user
name came with end of line, as part of template transclusion, and this will
kill the mw.title.new/1 function.

I'm trying to solve the problem exposed here:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Psychoslave#Templa
te:Participants (in French)

In a nutshell, the goal is to be able to ping a group of user on meta.
so ideally, you just type something like {{ping|my_group}}
But as ping and the underlying "Module:Reply_to" are expecting one user
per argument
my current idea is to make something like {{ping|{{:/some_group/members}
}}}
so instead of
{{ping|Amqui|Ariel1024|Aryamanarora|Benoît_Prieur|Daniel_
Kinzler_(WMDE)|Delarouvraie|Epantaleo|Ernest-Mtl|
GastelEtzwane|JackPotte|Jberkel|Jitrixis|Kimdime|LA2|LaMèreV
eille|Lydia_Pintscher_(WMDE)|Lyokoï|M0tty|Malaysiaboy|
Marcmiquel|Micru|Nattes_à_chat|Nemo_bis|Noé|Otourly|
Pamputt|psychoslave|Rich_Farmbrough|Rodelar|Satdeep_
Gill|Sebleouf|Shavtay|Stalinjeet|S_The_Singer|TAKASUGI_
Shinji|TaronjaSatsuma|Thibaut120094|Thiemo_Mättig_(WMDE)|tpt|Trizek_(WMF)|
VIGNERON|Vive_la_Rosière|Xabier_Cañas|Xenophôn}}

I can just write
     {{ping|{{:Wiktionary/Tremendous Wiktionary User Group/affiliates}}}}
for example

but even if I put verbatim in a template:
Amqui|Ariel1024|Aryamanarora|Benoît_Prieur|Daniel_Kinzler_(W
MDE)|Delarouvraie|Epantaleo|Ernest-Mtl|GastelEtzwane|JackPot
te|Jberkel|Jitrixis|Kimdime|LA2|LaMèreVeille|Lydia_
Pintscher_(WMDE)|Lyokoï|M0tty|Malaysiaboy|Marcmiquel|Micru|
Nattes_à_chat|Nemo_bis|Noé|Otourly|Pamputt|psychoslave|
Rich_Farmbrough|Rodelar|Satdeep_Gill|Sebleouf|Shavtay|
Stalinjeet|S_The_Singer|TAKASUGI_Shinji|TaronjaSatsuma
|Thibaut120094|Thiemo_Mättig_(WMDE)|tpt|Trizek_(WMF)|
VIGNERON|Vive_la_Rosière|Xabier_Cañas|Xenophôn in the page

and call ping with this template as argumement, it will end up with a
"Error in Template:Reply to: Input contains forbidden characters."

This message is generated by the module Reply_to but I can't change it
since it's protected.

So I'm looking for a way to bypass whatever generate this error, or more
broadly any idea to resolve the exposed problem.
