As described in https://wl.widelands.org/wiki/wiki%20todo/ the wiki page titles should now contain spaces. I have one problem with this new style. How can I write links in the wiki?

The old way was e.g.: BuildingWidelands

This brings me to the desired page, but with the note that I was redirected. So I assume this is the deprecated way. How is the new wiki link syntax?

I just quickly browsed the code and it seems the WikiWords Syntax has not changed. We have two options really, either we remove the warning that you have been redirected (that has to happen in the widelands website code) or you can use regular markdown url syntax. I think I like the first version better, what do you think?

Another option is to create a special wiki link tag. Something like [wiki:Building Widelands]. It is the most work for a programmer (me?) but I think it is the best solution. However I cannot do anything in the next 2-3 weeks.

The idea with the wiki link tag, sounds promising. In a further future, this can help to remove the unintended wiki links, like MinGw.
