As for the article + offsite link combo, I'm not really too picky about the formatting style - &lt;pre&gt;[[Example]] ([https://example.com])&lt;/pre&gt; - I just figured this particular style is the quickest way to present a reader with the option of a potentially in-depth article *and* a quick link to whatever resource we're talking about.
