**I investigated it a bit further:**

This happens on the update of the “linked” post (the one that is quoted) to include a link to the quotation. The link (because of the long title) ends up to be over 500 chars long, which triggers this issue.

The actual link on the linked post, never gets updated if the title is very long.
