Thread:Extension talk:WYSIWYG/Protocol relative external link/reply (3)

I agree, having external links inside double brackets  won't work properly, http in front of them does not help. F.ex. these fails or will be corrupted when switching between wikitext and wysiwyg modes repeatedly:
 * Configuration_settings
 * [|Configuration_settings]

This works:
 * Configuration_settings

This works also on my simple test page:
 * Configuration_settings

Wysiwyg (#6 bundle of Download section) is not 100% reliable, it may be sensitive to contents of page, like on your page where "https" link failed. I quess this is parser problem which does conversion between modes. At this moment I do not know how this could be fixed.
