Hi,

I want to include several different parts of one article in other articles. Basically, I want to split up a big article in several smaller ones with some stuff around, but keep the big one as the master article where all the editing happens.

Is that possible? How?

well, two strategies:

1. split the article in several small articles as you need, then replace the original article with several page transclusion. With this approach, if you edit small articles the changes reflects in the big one too...

2. keep the original big article and use an extension as DPL to include part of it in the small articles. With this approach, if you edit the original article, the changes reflect in all the small articles.
