Yes, this is a known thing, the {$PreviewText} variable contains the  
rendered wikitext, but on that specific page EditForm, the wikitext contains  
{$PreviewText}, it is a catch-22, a circular self-reference.

(actually, it contains (:e_preview:) which is evaluated to $PreviewText,  
but that's sensibly the same).

For the next version I'll suppress the warning, but there is still some  
weird "" output and I still haven't found where it comes from.

Anyways, this page shouldn't be edited and previewed very often, you can  
just ignore the warning and go on with your work. :-)
