In TWIR-587 there is a link containing a parentheses:

* [Why I'm Writing a Scheme Implementation in 2025](https://maplant.com/2025-02-17-Why-I'm-Writing-a-Scheme-Implementation-in-2025-(The-Answer-is-Async-Rust).html)

It generates the following html:

<li><a href="https://maplant.com/2025-02-17-Why-I'm-Writing-a-Scheme-Implementation-in-2025-(The-Answer-is-Async-Rust).htm">Why I'm Writing a Scheme Implementation in 2025</a>)</li>

Which causes the link to go to https://maplant.com/2025-02-17-Why-I'm-Writing-a-Scheme-Implementation-in-2025-(The-Answer-is-Async-Rust).htm and also leaves a hanging close parentheses after the link.

Interestingly it does not break in GitHub's markdown implementation:

This might be a upstream bug in pelican, but I do not know enough to say that definitely.
