[WikiEN-l] Howto write better WikiEN-l messages :)

Aye! Let me also quip in to say that that is an *extremly* irritating
convention to use in e-mail. Most mail-readers do not support the
English Wikipedia and therefore to check out the page that the person
is referring to in the [[double brackets]], you have to paste the
thing in the English Wikipedia's search box click search and goto the
page.

So if you are referring to a Wikipedia page, and want lazy people like
me to look at it, then please use an URL instead of stupid double
brackets.
