This is a bug in Text_Wiki. If there's no new_text and new_url 
specified for a wiki link it does the wrong thing. There's even a note 
in the code saying "do we really want to do this? it's broken" (it's 
in the Wikilink renderer). If you specify non-empty new_text it 
doesn't check to make sure there's a new_url.

When a guest browses the Wiki and comes across a link to a page which

doesn't exist yet, the link to the "broken" page displays characters 
other than [A-Za-z0-9]  in their urlencode()'d format.



For example:

Procedures/Nightly Process



Shows up as:

Procedures%2FNightly%20Process



which is linked to the local wicked home page.  This behavior exhibits 
itself if I use ((Wiki/Page/Name|Text Link)) syntax *or* 
[Wiki/Page/Name Text Link] syntax.



When a registered user is logged in and browsing, everything works as 
expected.
