Can you still name links with brackets?
closed
low
[ [ card name | link text ]]
The old syntax: ( [ card name ] [ link text ] ) still works but is deprecated.

You used to be able to use brackets to name a link something different from where it's actually going to - is this still possible?

Using Wagn

You've never been able to do that in wagn, though we'd wanted to move to that syntax. You could do this:
[ ] [ ] (without the space in the middle)
I went with name first over the suggested syntax order (which put the link text first) for three main reasons:
- Wiki convention -- that's how wikipedia does it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_edit_a_page
- Wagn convention -- this is more similar to the inclusion syntax, where the name comes first
- HTML convention -- the destination actually comes first in <A> syntax, too.

When you say name first, you mean the name of the card being linked to.
