Let's say my wiki had a great entry about Namespaces.
And a customer asked a question about Namespaces.
I would like to be able to follow up that post with a copy of the Namespaces wiki entry IN the reply post. Not just a link.
Possible ?

and vice-versa for that matter ?
I see that I've mentioned it before,
and so has another poster.

I thought I had discussed this elsewhere, but the reason it has not been implemented is because it would be especially difficult to handle redirects, templates, etc in the included wiki article.
In forum posts, this would almost always result in a dramatic increase in overhead. If used in a wiki article, it would be a redundant behavior to basic template functionality.
The reason separate postbit and parser classes were written for the wiki was to avoid many of these potential problems.
Potential alternatives:
- The QUOTE tag, which if used properly can link back to the article. There's not an easy method of linking back, but this should be addressed in an upcoming release.
- What you didn't notice in your test in one of the threads mentioned above: when the article actually exists, hovering over it will display the first paragraph from that article.
As mentioned in one of the threads you posted, having "multiple" articles in one article is an effect that can be accomplished using the H=1 BB-Code to split the article into separate article-boxes.
