+I extended the functionality of the [ikiwiki-nav plugin](TODO)
+(see [[here|tips/follow_wikilinks_from_inside_vim]]) to allow completion of
+wikilinks from inside vim, through the omnicompletion mechanism.
+
+It still has some bugs, but is usable, and will not destroy your data. It can
+only complete links whose definition (text) is on a single line, and still can't
+handle "named links" (`[[text|link]]`).
+
+I'd love to hear suggestions for improvement for it, and bug reports ;) For
+example, regarding how are sorted and presented the available completions
+(dates, alphabetically, etc).
+
+You can find a tarball for it
+[here](http://devnull.li/~jerojasro/ikiwiki-nav-dev.tar.gz). To install it,
+extract the tarball contents in your `.vim` directory.
