Mediawiki markup to reST conversion adds en extra "_"

[alexprengere]

I use pandoc 1.10.0.4 with Ubuntu 12.10.

Suppose I have a file containing one link, with mediawiki markup:

$ cat toto.mediawiki
This is a [http://www.google.fr link].

Now I convert this to reST:

$ pandoc -f mediawiki -t rst toto.mediawiki > toto.rst 
$ cat toto.rst
This is a `link <http://www.google.fr>`__.

There is two "" at the end of the link, only one is expected. It may not be a big deal if you use reST to HTML conversion next, but you if convert it again to mardown, here you really get an extra "" in your source:

$ pandoc -f rst -t markdown toto.rst
This is a [link](http://www.google.fr)\_.

The writer did change, but the problem is really in the RST reader.
It should accept the anonymous form of links (two _s), as rst2html.py
does.

I check the reST documentation on hyperlinks here, and you are absolutely right, two trailing underscores are allowed for anonymous links.
Si I guess the reST reader do not support these.
