That actually is a link to the wiki page on Alexandria, in the new GitRepublic client. I run the NostrMarkup parser over everything readable.

Cuz I'm like, too lazy to not just program:

```

If 30041 or 30818, then Asciidoc parser.

Else Markup parser.

```

Yes, that displays as a code-block. 😂

The wiki page is a disambiguation page that can also include external pages, like Wikipedia. It's a deep search page; just has Nostr wiki pages at the top.

ok, but that doesn't answer the question of where you resolve this from

I just use the various URLs. I don't bother coming up with some new protocol.

[[Sybil]] returns:

https://next-alexandria.gitcitadel.eu/publication?d=sybil

and

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sibyl

the reason why i'm kinda semi-hostile to niel is because he doesn't seem like he has any practical experience in a dev shop.

he doesn't understand that to make a URL (UNIFORM RESOURCE LOCATOR) you have to have a system that answers queries for that and knows where to find it.

That system is the Nostr client. Only one client has it, so far, but people will get used to leaving the [[wikilinks]] everywhere and the others will have to go along, eventually.

It's pretty cool, combined with semantic searches, as you nearly always get something relevant back, even if you type in something like [[white smoke]] or whatever.

And you can write a document, like a research paper, containing the link to [[SNPs]] or [[glaucoma]] and people clicking it will always get a result.

Damn, #jumble was fast with the custom NIP-05 icons. Not bad, not bad, at all.

Look nostr:npub1wqfzz2p880wq0tumuae9lfwyhs8uz35xd0kr34zrvrwyh3kvrzuskcqsyn we have helmets!

i don't see it. using jumble.

I think you understimate him. What we're building is an idea from him. It's brilliant. Finally makes Nostr Wikis interesting again.

resolving the source of the data is pretty important. but i'll just slink back into the background as the guy who is busy building those parts.

ah yeah, i was gonna debug using relay-tester. right now i want to nap.

actually, i'm gonna go on a big walk to the next town to pick up some supplies. my cat food stash has got really thin lately

and URLs mean a server protocol, with a list of possible servers, that have a database that stores those references to elsewhere. right?

Yeah, sure. Relays and whatever is behind Wikipedia's website. Haven't bothered to look. URLs are great, for this sort of thing, as lots of them are topic-based because websites have an internal search. Can even do cross-language searches. Just have to select which ones you want to search and figure out how to query them from the URL.

yes, but you have to use those sources. or you don't know where to find them. and you can't show nothing to the user. i mean, you can, but the user will go "where is my things"
