Ideally, I'd expect an attempt to citoid[1] a link to Wikipedia to helpfully suggest that the user just turn it into a normal wikilink. Instead I get from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victor_Arnautoff <ref>{{Cite journal|title = Victor Arnautoff|url = https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Victor_Arnautoff&oldid=639070838|date = 2014-12-21T18:19:40Z|access-date = 2015-04-08|language = en}}</ref> Which is a totally invalid date and throws a warning (though it does try to do the right thing about citing to a specific oldid!) (Probably not a common case, but figured worth noting.) Harder, related, even rarer case perhaps worth noting: I found some "citations" today that are direct links to a PDF uploaded on wikisource, e.g.,: <ref>[http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikisource/en/d/d2/ChurchB6_2_Beginnings.pdf]</ref> I don't think I can expect citoid to handle a raw PDF, but maybe upload.wikimedia.org should be special-cased? [1] What is the verb there anyway? :)
