I'm not sure where I should make this suggestion
to grab the most
attention, so I shall make it here.
I hereby propose that instead of using the heading "See also" at the
end of articles, we use the title "Related articles". The latter
sounds much more encyclopaedic, clearly indicates the purpose of the
section, and should encourage only relevant links at the end of
articles.
"See also" is quite blunt, rather ineloquent and instructional in my
opinion. Do people have thoughts on this? I'm aware of how
wide-ranging this would be, but I would see the (somewhat) temporary
dual-usage of both section titles as a small enough disruption.

Personally i prefer "Related topics" which is more common than what
you're proposing.
