Sorry Radomir. I made a couple of mistakes indeed and I could have been more concise and to the point (should not have put any rendering suggestions). Also, forget about that whole title/alternate text thing, that is not what I meant. I just want to make the order less relevant.
My points are:
* Explicit vs implicit links
* Implicit links are not showed in the Links page as they are on the Creole 0.3 page...
* Even if it breaks the "Extensible by omission" principle a little, should Creole standardize the different syntaxes of targets (especially for implicit links) so that nothing breaks when exchanging Wiki texts?
** Internal target
** InterWiki target
** URI (RFC3986)?
* If the spec does not make the syntax of targets more formal, I think it could generate collisions with the chosen markup and delimiter, whatever they are.
* When you look at WikiMatrix internal/external links comparisons, the meaning of the description part of the link changes somewhat between internal and external links and the position (order) of the description in the link. If Creole accepts any order, it could generate ambiguous situations but make the order less relevant. So let's try again :
# I have one existing wiki page called Foo. {{{[[Foo|Bar]]}}} would generate [Bar|Foo].
# I have one existing wiki page called Bar. {{{[[Foo|Bar]]}}} would generate [Foo|Bar].
# I have two existing wiki pages: Foo and Bar. {{{[[Foo|Bar]]}}} would generate [Foo|Bar] (hyperlinked text is the first part of the link by default).
The questions are:
* How could Creole make the third example less ambiguous if the order is not relevant?
* In the first example, a problem arises when someone creates a page called "Bar" afterward... The rendering will change for the one in example 3. Is that OK?
* What if the markup/delimiter is part of the Text or Target? (That's a recurrent question for any markup)
So, IMHO, we have a couple of things to settle:
# Creole "support" of implicit links
# The order of the text and the target (should we care?)
# The markup itself "[[[" "]]" and the field delimiter pipe "|". (I think we have a consensus on that point).
# How formal the syntax of the target should be
