Well in fact the problem is even more general as it affect all URLs including a column (":") but it's mostly seen in wiki categories. The site won't allow column in URLs so I had to use a URL shortener (bit.ly) to link to http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Roleplaying/Wilderness_Dweller

Yeah - there are rules being applied to href values that incorrect, unnecessary, and that disallow working URLs. I've griped about it too. In many cases, including this one, you can switch to the bbcode url tag, which apparently has different rules: Wilderness Dweller That will give you Wilderness Dweller. That's easier to do correctly with the wysiwyg editor disabled.
