Extension talk:LinkifySVG

This extension is planned to intercept uploading of SVG files and convert any text in them into links if they contain a valid URL or are surrounded by double square brackets to indicate a wiki article.

First the xlink namespace must be added to the SVG opening element:

xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"

Next the XML must be parsed and any text elements with matching content converted by surrounding it with an a element. Here's an example of a text element from an SVG created with Inkscape which has been simplified a bit for clarity and linkified.
