{{MovedToMediaWiki|One-pass parser}}
Our current wikitext parser goes through many passes, with many regexps and a few explode()/implode()s. Not only is it kinda slow, it's prone to horrible frightening bugs when different levels interfere with each other (such as the URL-in-URL bugs).

One, or at least fewer, passes would be good.

Magnus has, according to rumour, written such a thing for [[WINOR]]. Could it be adapted?
