Description wiki_tomos 2004-12-24 01:47:47 UTC 
A URL such as "http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Wikinews:Workplace" is interpreted as
a link to http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Wiki It seems that "news:" as well as
"ftp:" and other similar strings are interpreted to have special meaning when in
a URL. 

The problem occurs with pagenames or section names within a wiki tag [[]] when
there is "news:" or other specific strings.
