:I believe that the current software is actively unlinking URLs like that. I edited a page that had an external link in it of the form you describe above, just a bare URL, and even though I didn't touch the external URL in question it came up unlinked after the edit. Try it out; find a page with an existing external link, edit it, and the link will be gone in the new version. This doesn't apply to links using the syntax <nowiki>[http://yaddayadda.com/etcetera name of link here]</nowiki>, however. Those remain intact through an edit.
