Nov 14, 2011 at 21:51 comment added Schwern By your first statement, I believe my question wasn't clear. It's not that SO should insert angle brackets when displaying URLs, but that SO should turn URLs with brackets around them into links. This is about autolinking, not display. Otherwise, see my comment to @kiamlaluno's answer, summed up as A) there's no docs saying comments autolink different from posts, yet they do autolink and more importantly B) different autolink behaviors are confusing, why do it?

Nov 14, 2011 at 20:03 comment added Kevin Vermeer Here's an example of a better link to that page: Wikipedia article on inotify, produced by [Wikipedia article on inotify](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inotify).
Nov 14, 2011 at 20:02 comment added Kevin Vermeer Here is an example of not parsing differently, if you really want your angle brackets: <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inotify> produced by [<en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inotify>](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inotify).
