I admit i have never tried it before. Now i did and it

according to
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21278 and
after reading through the source code i thought the syntax should be
something like this.
{{** [
http://mydomain.com/gallery/ Photo gallery]}}
But it didn't work out. It simply didn't show up.
It would be very nice if Platonides could give us an example.
Anyway i think the fact that the sidebar doesn't take care of
$wgExternalLinkTarget is worth a bug report.

If you add inside MediaWiki:Sidebar
* {{ MyBlock }}
Then you can add at MediaWiki:MyBlock a sidebar section using full wikitext.
NB: You need 1.17 or higher for the {{ }} syntax to work.
