The wikilinks extension of markdown has one disadvantage: It is not possible to give a different label, e.g. it is not possible to have a link like:

<a href="/wiki/GameHelpMultiplayer">Multiplayer</a>

or, as bad example but often used:

<a href="/wiki/GameHelpMultiplayer">see here</a>

There is a third party extension to markdown called semanticwikilinks which could solve this, so the syntax is a bit different. The following examples will produce the above links:

[[ GameHelpMultiplayer | Multiplayer ]]

[[ GameHelpMultiplayer | see here ]]

But this extension is quite old and some of the benefits do not work as described. I have proposed a change but had no answer yet.
