If multiple URLs follow one another, seperated only by spaces, every other URL is not linked. Example of bug follows:

http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/ http://meta.wikipedia.org/

This list is a bunch of URLs entered without any wiki-encoding. This looks like it might be a RegExp bug (the space between the URLs is being matched the first URL and can't be used for the second URL; causing the match to fail for the second URL). This may already be documented somewhere but since this site's search engine doesn't work I'm not even going to bother looking for it.
