With Wikipedia-like syntax we denote links by [[link]], and macros by {{macro}} (for example {{BR}} and {{TableOfContents(2)}}). In default MoinMoin syntax _macros_ use [[macro]] syntax, and you use ["link"] to force non-CamelCase link. Editing page which uses Wikipedia-like syntax with GUI editing makes the following changes: [[CamelCase]] --> CamelCase [[Link]] --> ["Link"] (this is not much trouble, beside fact that everyone is used to Wikipedia syntax) [[Link|the link]] --> [:Link:the link] (much less people understand MoinMoin notation that Wikipedia pipe link) {{Macro}} --> [[Macro]] (which causes macro to be displayed as link to nowehere and DO NOT WORK!!!) Camel``Case --> Camel{{{}}}Case (a bit harder to read). To everybody else: please avoid GUI editing till it is corrected. TIA. -- Jakub Narebski Poland
