That's odd, I allways typed the links as [LINK The Link] and (at least in
the preview) it wasn't shown as a Wiki link. I'll try again.

I don't understand this.

Great, thanks.

The Wiki versions are not good enough, because you might change some typo
in the DIP but don't make a version bump. Versions of DIPs are much more
important than wiki pages revisions (which are just for revision control).
I think it would be a bad idea to have both tied.

I know, you just gave me the idea to archive old DIP versions ;)

It does. Thanks.
