--- Comment #2 from Helder <[email protected]> ---
Because the current behaviour is confusing:

If I open the page of an item which already has a Dewey classification (e.g.
[[d:Q11205]]), I see a link, but if I go to an item which doesn't, and add it,
there is no link and the natural thinking is that I provided the wrong value
and should have added a [http:... link] (and this is not the case).

E.g. I just went to [[d:Q122653]], clicked on "add", filled the "property"
field with "P1036" and added the value "513.5" and saved. The result was a
simple text instead of a link pointing to
http://dewey.info/class/513.5/about

If Wikidata fired a hook when the saving process is finished, the gadget could
use that to bind the event which converts a text to a link, and display it to
the user right after the new value is saved.
