Would also love to have the flexibility to have a slightly less obvious version that looks like a standard html link (like the Wikipedia BBcode hack provided for 3.0.x). This is a minor request, though.

I like the "W" logo preceding the link but I modified it as follows to look better as an inline link:

<span style="background-color: #F5F5FF; border: 1px Blue; padding: 1px; text-decoration: none;"><img src="images/misc/wikipedia.gif" alt="Wikipedia reference-link" align="absmiddle" border="0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/{param}" target="new">{param}</a></span>

See demo here. Change the background-color from #F5F5FF to whatever best suits your forum style.

If you want to omit the "W", just use this:

<span style="background-color: #F5F5FF; border: 1px Blue; padding: 1px; text-decoration: none;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/{param}" target="new">{param}</a></span>

Update: I've decided I prefer it as a link without the "W" image too.
