in thread Perl 6 links

That's only part of the issue, but no.

If you'd done a super search before asking, you would have proposed [^ :] instead, but would have still found *tons* of nodes.

      No, I said \w+ not (http|https|...). And that was intentional. I hate "reserved word" schemes.

      A few exceptions isn't a big deal. People can't link to those few nodes by title (unless the titles are updated, since those titles mostly aren't great anyway). Having a whole raft of nodes matching /^\w+:/ is a problem (for your proposal).
