Mana icons and etc. in text linking and not displaying properly

Having issues getting mana symbols (all I've seen have problems so far) to properly display all the time. Using the [ [W] ] syntax will sometimes yield the white mana symbol (maybe it'll work... ), and other times when I go to my deck page it shows a link to user a user W's page profile. When I refresh my deck or go back later it's properly displaying the symbol. I've noticed it with (links to a W/U deck) as well as (links to a user profile page). The deck in question where I'm noticing this happen is Red-striped Azorius Heroes.

As an aside... after hitting Preview a few times all the symbols are appearing whereas on my first few R and W weren't working. So weird.

Yeah, they will do that, as there are decks and users with the same names. Just use this syntax: [ [symbol:W] ] ->

Ahh, didn't realize there was a markup for it. Thanks, hyperlocke!

Maybe a little blurb on inserting symbols, costs, etc. could be added to the formatting tips page? Epochalyptik?
