They must start with one of the following: "http", "https", "ftp", or "mailto", and can exist either by themselves, or on the left of the bar. Examples:
- [[simple link]] - will go to the content titled "simple link" or a page to create that content.
- [[this is the target|this is the source]] - will present "this is the source" as a link to "this is the target", or a page to create that content.
- [[http://www.example.com|this is the source]] - will present "this is the source" as a link to http://www.example.com.
- [[http://www.example.com]] - will present "http://www.example.com" as a link to http://www.example.com.
