This seems to be caused by the templates in [[de:MediaWiki:Editing]].
Can be seen on testwiki as well, where parser functions are the cause ([[testwiki:MediaWiki:Editing]]).

This is still an issue. I've restored MediaWiki:Editing on testwiki for demonstration purposes.
Krinkle has stated "Don't use wikitext in this message" (MediaWiki:Editing), but he didn't give a reason. Since parser functions, etc. work fine in this message in MediaWiki core, I think we should expect VE to handle them too, or else it should use a different message that specifically does not support fancy stuff.

This is still a problem, currently only visible when creating a new page because https://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Editing&action=edit no longer has the templates, but https://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Creating&action=edit still does. T95711 is the same bug for MediaWiki's live preview feature.

This and T95711 are wontfix. These localisation messages should not use parser functions. This was never intentionally supported and whatever localisation needs exist in German that need this should be filed as a separate task against MediaWiki core to find a way to support that.
Complex parser functions will not be supported in this interface message.
