+The standalone 'markdown' utility is perfectly happy with an external link inside a `<h1>`, e.g.:
+
+    # Review of [Dwarf Fortress][]
+    ...
+    [Dwarf Fortress]: http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/
+
+produces
+
+    <h1>Review of <a href="http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/">Dwarf Fortress</a></h1>
+
+but when I try to use this construct in an ikiwiki page, I get 
+
+    <h1>Review of [Dwarf Fortress][]</h1>
+
+It works fine with h2 and deeper.  The square brackets also appear in the output of an [[directive/inline]] directive in archive mode, I haven't tried non-archive mode.
