I tend to use wikilinks
to help me skim sentences for the important subjects they refer to.
I think the problem with the Language article is that it's far too heavily
wikified. In some sentences nearly all words are needlessly peppered with
blue link. As if someone would find himself unable to understand what was
meant by "sounds" or "gestures" in the opener, and a link to the
articles
for those words would help.
Perhaps you should choose (or design) a skin that doesn't highlight
wikilinks unless you glide your cursor over them.
In general, I would agree that our blue wikilinks are a little too
contrasting with the text body, making them a distraction, and would
prefer something more subtle as the default.
I think that blue was initially chosen as the default for hyperlinks in
browsers due to red/green colourblindness...
