I went to GnumedManual and the links seem to work. I did try to fix
the alternate named link , as there seemed to be a MoinMoin form,
but I may have just settled for a regex that parsed the page and
the anchor but not the alternate text , and creates an alternate
link sentence by splitting the wikiname .
If anything , a better regex pattern might solve this.
