> Many websites that accept Markdown end up pretty-printing raw URLs. For example, GitHub turns https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/844#issuecomment-2705479356 into https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/844#issuecomment-2705479356. It isn’t the most discoverable syntax: you’d probably see people occasionally trying to replicate the presentation by hand as [`informal=yes`](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:informal%3Dyes), but I don’t think that would be a huge problem.

Good idea! I think this is getting too far from the ticket here which is about user entered markdown content to be formatted, so I've opened #5780 for what you describe.
