    Wikipedia/Glossary Autolinking?

    Autolinking from wikipedia and/or another glossary would be a nice option.
    There is an autolinking hack on vBulletin.org, but it doesn't link from another glossary or wikipedia.

    I'd love to have autolinking from Wikipedia.

    I reaaaaallly like the idea, but I reaaaaally don't think it should be built-in to vBulletin.

    As in, an official hack? vBWiki? lol.

    Personally, I think it's better left as a mod/plugin/hack/hook. .

    You mean autolinking the way it's done on Trillian Pro? If so, then I'm for it, but only if it's a plug-in of some nature, and can easily be turned off and on, and possibly even user controllable.

    Yes, exactly like Trillian Pro's. I'm a Trillian 3 Pro user here myself.

    Same. That's exactly how I feel. I just want for it to be toggled by the admin.
