New parentheses code breaks (near-)Woodall multi-reservation link

Multi Reservation:14 (which is the reservation for my personal project for filling in the gaps in Woodall and near-Woodall k's) uses a custom piped link in its name, designed to display a formatted k in the link output. However, the new code in this template is deleting the link due to the parentheses around "Near", resulting in ugly code displaying on Riesel 2 Missing-range. While the merits of a redlink to a page that will likely never be created are debatable, ideally this template should only omit the link for a contributor when the whole string is parenthesized, not just part of it. -happy5214 03:53, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

So this project lasts for a longer time, I've created an own project page for those reserved values. To change this template for determing the first and last character as brackets, it's more time consuming. Using the template also for creating the prime tables would take even more time than in this version. The easier way is to change the project name, it's only a name here, nothing official.
