from bug T4095 comment 8, Example case (from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_eclipse, external links section:
<nowiki> [http://eclipse.span.ch/eclipse8april.htm Pictures of the most recent eclipse of [[8 April]] [[2005]]] </nowiki>
should give
<nowiki> Pictures of the most recent eclipse of [[8 April]] [[2005]] </nowiki>
as link text, but gives instead
<nowiki> [http://eclipse.span.ch/eclipse8april.htm Pictures of the most recent eclipse of 2005 ] </nowiki>
with the http: part as an external link, and the closing bracket as a link to "8 April". note: The example describes "nested links": "wiki links" inside "external links". This is somthing new. To my understanding the most usefull would be to change
[http://eclipse.span.ch/eclipse8april.htm Pictures of the most recent eclipse of [[8 April]] [[2005]]]
to
[http://eclipse.span.ch/eclipse8april.htm Pictures of the most recent eclipse of] [[8 April]] [[2005]]
This should be done by users / contributors. Would be great if the MediaWiki software could generate a warning.
