AFAIK, we all agree on now: * No magic character at all in page titles (thus, no real subpages) * Avoid "/" character in page titles * Some topics need an easy method of grouping related subtopics * The obvious soultion is to use "Y (X)" instead of "X/Y" * Linking within related pages should be simplyfied
Two basic ways to do that: 1. Use the parser to display links differently 2. Change certain "shortcuts" on save
---- Now, for my own opinion:
Personally, I am much in favor of #2, as there will be no special behaviour added that complicates both the software and the understanding of rules for newcomers. "Old hands" will know how to use this, other won't bother and will, eventually, have to type the long title.
IF we could agree on #2, all we need to agree on otherwise is what kind of shortcut should be used. It should be * Simple * Fast to type * Unusual enough to not be used in a real page title
So, how about * [[Elves()]] on [[Middle Earth]] becomes [[Elves (Middle Earth)]]
I guess no real article would ever end on "()", except you try to write articles about functions with no parameter list ;)
