[Mediawiki-l] Automatically linking wiki words

[Dave Sigafoos]

This *could* be done with an extension during the 'Save Page' process.  Probably be work on a 'keyword' list similar to the way Firefox spell checker works.  Where you could add words/phrases etc.  Hmmm ..

Subject: [Mediawiki-l] Automatically linking wiki words



Is there a way to automatically link the wiki words in an article? i.e. suppose in an article, there may be words like "open source" or "software" for which articles are there in the wiki. Currently we have to manually link them like [[open source]] or [[software]]. But most of the cases, the author may not be knowing whether that article exists or not, or there may be case inconsistencies. Is it possible to automatically link the words or phrases that has an entry in the page table as titles?

Regards,

 Jack
