'References' refers to noweb references. See

Almost. ox-ravel does not call knitr. The ravel backends advice
`org-babel-exp-do-export' when a ravel backend runs so R code src blocks
are not run, but are turned into chunks (for knitr, Sweave, or ...) and
exported as such.
When you want to actually process the resulting document, you have to call
on knitr or some other R report generator to do the work.

Correct for R src blocks. But emacs-lisp and other languages are treated as
under the parent backends.

In R scr blocks, :eval is ignored by ravel and so need not change when
ravel is run.

It's not related to ox-ravel, which uses the same transcoders as the parent
backends for everything except inline src and src blocks.
I'm not sure how to get what you seem to want.
Maybe use a custom link
http://orgmode.org/org.html#Adding-hyperlink-types
or ask about html/md links in a fresh thread?
HTH,
