+rst support for ikiwiki seems to be on hold. rst is much more elegant
+than markdown in my opinion, so I tried it out in ikiwiki. I found out
+in other places that some directives work just fine, like [[meta]] and
+[[tag]], others work fine if you wrap them in `.. raw::`, like [[inline]].
+
+But to make a wiki we need [[WikiLinks]]; they can't be escape-inserted or such since they are inline elements in the text.. But images work fine in rst's syntax.. what about using rst syntax for wikilinks as well?
+Is it possible to inject something into the parser to turn unmached links ` `WikiLink`_ ` into ikiwiki links? --ulrik
