I suppose this is about the ddox pages [1], right? The link is broken there, but it's fine on the ddoc pages [2].

The underscore is there for a reason: Without it, "datetime" would be highlighted by ddoc, which would garble the URL, breaking the link.

That ddox carries over the underscore literally seems to be a bug, or at least an incompatibility between ddox and ddoc.

So, fixing this will be more complicated than just removing the underscore, unfortunately.

Yes. Okay so this is a ddox issue and presumably it is well known so I'll close this issue.

I don't think it's well known. At least, this is the first time it's been pointed out to me. This may have to be fixed in ddox, but the broken links are an issue for phobos/dlang.org. So this is definitely not invalid. Reopening.

The ddox issue has been fixed. For the fix to reach dlang.org there will have to be a ddox release, and the dlang.org repository will have to be updated to use it.

The fixed version of the documentation has been deployed. I've opened a separate issue for the "improve this page" link bug: https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16114
