When uploading your own work (at least, not tested otherwise) including wikilinks in a custom string for the "author" field breaks the resulting {{information}} template.
e.g. I uploaded a file and tried to use my usual attribution: <nowiki>Chris McKenna ([[user:Thryduulf|]])</nowiki>, not realising that a link to my user page would be automatically applied. See:

Solution 1:
- Check if wikilinks are included in string
If present, do not add any links.
If not present, add link as presently
Solution 2:
*Check if Wikilinks are included in string.
If present, check whether target is the same as wizard would link to
*If yes, do not add any links.
***If no, append link to string (e.g. "([[user:]])")
