The attached short patch (just a 12 line addition) implements wikitools failover support for the nodetitle plugin, as an alternative to using a static "create" link. Using this failover keeps cached "create" links from breaking, since wikitools will either ask to create the page, or redirect to the created page once it exists. That way, if you have multiple pages linking to a non-existent page, you don't have to hunt them down or flush the caches just to make those pages work correctly.
Hope you find this worthy of inclusion in the next alpha. Thanks!

juampynr commentedSince this issue got no response at all, I have written the maintainers at Wikitools module to get feedback for a better integration between Freelinking and Wikitools.
#1248812: Review integration with freelinking module
Comment #2
pje commentedJust a quick clarification: the support this patch provides has nothing to do with wikitools hijacking. It's just a more-useful alternative to the "create" fallback.
This is something that wikitools can't provide by hijacking freelinking, but freelinking can easily support it on its side.
(Also, it'd be nice if this could go in the 6.x version, since it's a really trivial patch. Thanks!)

gisleSetting status to "Needs review". Patches need to be reviewed by the project's user community before they are committed.

gisleOn second thoughts, closing.
The port of of Wikitools to Drupal 7 seems to have stalled at 7.x-1.0-alpha1 around 2011-Mar-11, and the module appears to be unsupported as of Oct. 2014.
Hence, I do not recommend that Wikitools is used with Freelinking. If there is a Wikitools feature you would like to use with Freelinking, post a feature request in the Freelinking issue queue and I'll try to port it.
