Sure ! I perfectly understand that edges are metadata. I was only suggesting to auto-generate part of that metadata from WikiText ;-)
But I should have explained it. In my (very) old TiddlerGraphPlugin : http://ideia.tiddlyspot.com/#PlotTest I was using a very straitforward syntax to create graphs : * ''michel'' -> [[married to|susan]] Allows to create a annotated link. Would you still like me to fill a issue on github BTW ? (I didn't notice your code was on github).
