> Hello,

> I was reading the History of Germany articles and

http://en2.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Germany
>
> I think this will improve wikipedia just as much as

>
> A way to implement this feature would be to point a
> parent article to all
> it's childs and vice versa. That might be done using
> [[parent:articlename]]
> and / or [[child:articlename]].
>
> Let's look at an example:
>
> History of Germany
> -> Franks
> -> Holy Roman Empire
> -> German Confederation
> -> German Empire
> -> Weimar Republic
> -> Nazi Germany
> -> Germany since 1945
>
> Franks article is interesting
> (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franks) as it
> is part of two series (History of France AND of
> Germany).
>
> So the History of Germany will have:
> [[child:Franks]]
>
> And Franks will have:
> [[parent:History of France]]
> [[parent:History of Germany]]
>
>
> Maybe we just need the parent tag ? Setting up a
> parent tag in an article
> will automaticly update the parent article without
> using any child.
