+# Spaces in WikiLinks?
+
+Hello Joey,
+
+I've just switched from ikiwiki 2.0 to ikiwiki 2.2 and I'm really surprised
+that I can't use the spaces in WikiLinks. Could you please tell me why the spaces
+aren't allowed in WikiLinks now?
+
+My best regards,
+
+--[[Paweł|ptecza]]
+
+> This is not new behavior in 2.2 as far as I know. Ikiwiki was always 
+> interpreted "[ [foo bar] ]" as a preprocessor directive, with the
+> whitespace after the first word being the significant bit that
+> distinguishes it from a wikilink. If you want whitespace in a wikilink,
+> you use underscores; there's been a note at the end of [[WikiLink]] about
+> that for some time. --[[Joey]]
