Even that would be enough- linking only the first appearance of a wiki word/phrase :)

Hello,

[[I'm]] [[afraid]] [[it]] [[will]] [[be]] [[boring]]... if you know what I
mean ;-)
In the same article, if the word software is repeated a lot of time, we
usually link the first, else the page will be a bit "heavy" to read.
