Both MSDN and Wikipedia are very referenced documentation resources.
Would be possible to automatically replace not formated links, like:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.text.regularexpressions.regexoptions.aspx
with the page title:
RegexOptions Enumeration (System.Text.RegularExpressions)
or you're only implementing this on SE sites because all it requires is a database query instead of scraping the title?
I'm in doubts about if this is allowed in MSDN or Wikipedia, but that's not for evil purposes, totally the opposite.
I've seen many questions linking MSDN / Wikipedia without formatting the link, like:
- How can I pass more than one enum to a method that receives only one?
- Lambda expression returns method?
- Lambda expression returns method?
- What are 1NF, 2NF and 3NF in database design?
- what is the difference between atan and atan2 in c++?
- What does 'foo' really mean?
Of course, I'm refering to the post editor, and not about comments, because as Jeff said in Replace links with the current question title in comments, comments are processed on the fly.
