I think you may be working on the wrong project, Karl. It sounds
like you're looking for Gopherpedia. ;-)
Seriously, one of the reasons wikis work so well is the ease of
linking and cross-referencing. Are you arguing that if a person is
reading the article on Mexico, and then wants to read about the
history of the country in more detail, he should have to do a search
to find our History of Mexico article?
However, I would love to see our searching capabilities improved.
That's not a complaint, dear developers, just a little wistful thinking.
