Hello,
I'am looking for a bot that scan all pages and add links bitween pages when keywords are recognized.
For exemple: - Got a page called "Heart Disease" - Got a page called "History of Mr X" wich includes that sentence: "He's got some heart disease" but without any link
I'm looking for a bot that recognise that "heart disease" in the text should be marked as link to the "Heart Disease" page.
Does it exist ? If don't I'll build one but based on PHP CLI
Thanks in advance, Sincerely,
CreatixEA

DO NOT create links automatically. Link sshould be created with good reason or else almost everything would be a link in a few weeks time. Having some heart disease is no reason to link to "Heart Disease" (except in a wiki about heart diseases, maybe). If the person did research in this field the links is necessary.

Having read several prior posts on this general topic, automatic linking, I can certainly understand the 'against automatic linking' view from the perspective of a generalized wiki with many common words as wiki pages. However, for a specialized wiki with pages that are not likely to be common words, automatic linking has benefits. One example of this, on another platform, is planetmath.org.
I would be interested in a bot that can do automatic linking for my own site, Emilien. The kind of functionality I am envisioning is to edit the wiki's pages to make words into wikilinks (limited to pages within the same wiki, not intrawiki) where the word is also the exact title of an existing wiki page. The ability to determine whether the page gets edited or depending on, say, its category might be useful.
If this is an inappropriate thread for this list, folks, please say so, and we can take this offline tout de suite.
