<a href="http://link.com"> link </a>

will work. Your links didn't work because they were of the form

<a href= "http://link.com"> link </a>
<a  href="http://link.com"> link </a>

The extra spaces broke the links.

Note that the usual methods sometimes do not work with Wikipedia links that have peculiar punctuation. It might work on everybody else's up-to-date browsers.

Actually, if you enter your strange punctuation links using CTRL+L or by clicking the button in the button bar (as opposed to manually entering the markdown), the editor automagically escapes all the weird characters.

When you're typing your question or answer, try typing CTRL+L, or click the little picture of the earth with a little arrow next to it (it's the third thing from the left in the bar above the input field).

If you're trying to make a link in a comment, just type the URL (without any extra html) and it will be automatically linkified.

I have tried just naively entering the html for a linkand obviously something else is required, maybe some kind of escape code. Can someone help with this?
