+I am sorry, but I am confused. Does this mean that I can use Ikiwiki
+features that translate to HTML in rst files? For example, when I use a
+\[[pagename]]-style link in a rst file, the page generated by Ikiwiki's rst
+plugin says <a href="./../pagename/">pagename</a> as text. The link
+is expanded correctly, but the result isn't interpreted as HTML. Is that
+what is supposed to happen? --Peter

+
+You can also create a raw "role" which is at least easier than raw directives.
+
+ .. role:: ikiwiki(raw)
+ :format: html
+
+ :ikiwiki:`\[[WikiLink]]`
+
+A role assigns meaning to interpreted text (for example :acronym:`ABC`) or :PEP:`8`. --ulrik [kaizer.se]
