I'm pretty sure it's #2

I read this question 2 ways.
#1 - You want an extension that will automatically link words to Wikipedia,
that are not currently linked. This would be very difficult to
implement efficiently (with multi word titles being taken into account) and
would end up with half of your text as wikilinks, IE [1][2][3][4]
#2 - You want an extension that will replace redlinks, where possible, with
links to wikipedia. I don't know how the parser engine handles links like
that, but I'm sure a hack could be made that would be reasonable.
Which were you talking about?

Right now the logic is that if you have a link using the [[ ]] the code
will check that there is a page with that name.
What I want to do is add to that, that if there is NOT, then it checks to
see if there is a page with that name at En.Wikipedia
Is there already an extension that does that? Does anyone see any
problem
with modding the code to do this?
