What would also be nice is the extend the pipe trick
for comma titles. IMO to follow the logic of your
proposed change [[Auburn, California]] would
automatically become [[Auburn, California | Auburn]]
but that may brake many links that already intend to
display the whole link name. So just to make linking
easier for at least those in the know perhaps
[[Auburn, California | ]] could be displayed as just
<u>Auburn</u> but in the wiki code it could still be
[[Auburn, California | ]] so that newbies can figure
out the trick. Yeah I know this would be inconsistent
with the proposed change in how the pipe trick works
with parentheticals but it is still tedious to type
[[Auburn, California | Auburn]] all the time.

Violates the principle of least surprise, in my arrogant opinion. A
naive attempt to link to [[20,000 Leagues Under the Sea]] would show up
in the displayed article as <u>20</u>? A link to [['Night, Mother]]
would display as <u>'Night</u>?
I think a lot of newbies would conclude that the Wikipedia is broken.
