Wikilinks problem in Markdown document for reference notes and citations

Hmm, I think I’m failing to communicate what I’m trying to say… :slight_smile:

To me it’s not obvious why the automatic WikiLinks parser recognises all of these as WikiLinks:

@Braulik1999

(Braulik1999)

{Braulik1999}

#Braulik1999#

but not this:

[@Braulik1999]

It appears that the only characters which prevent detection of Braulik1999 are [ and ]. And those two characters are precisely the ones I want to use :slight_smile: Single brackets don’t mean anything in terms of WikiLinks recognition, so it’s not clear to me why they exclude Braulik1999 from being recognised as a WikiLink.

I’m not asking for single brackets to be recognised as special syntax. I’m just suggesting that single brackets shouldn’t exclude a WikiLink from being recognised.
