I think the naming convention for linked words in an articles that has "ال" should include the "ال". words don't look nice when separated.

Totally agree; not only becuase of the beauty of pronouncation, but we should take into consideration that most users would search for an article with the "ال" in the title, and being not included in the title will return a null result. What do u think? Yours, Mohammad

I said the above because I saw some alterations by our beloved admin (Isam) and the reverse of that by some users. To the eye, it is much more comfortable to have the "ال" as part of the linked word.
Well, I agree that the AL should be used in some cases, and in other cases, create redirects for example: السعودية --- سعودية الرازي --- رازي
and so on.. So, we should have the article title in a simple form, and we can create redirects for it using more complicated forms, such as plural forms, AL forms, and so on..
what do you think ?
Yours Isam

That does not bother me. My original message refered to the article text, it looks ugly to have "ال سعودية" as opposed to "السعودية".
