gollark: Now, yes, it stores outbound links. I could add some complex invalidation logic. However, no.

gollark: As I said; if I did make it prerender all documents to HTML on save, which I certainly could do, then it would not recolor links if you changed one of the ~~links~~ linked pages.

gollark: Nope.
