This feature exists already, if you use <pages header=1 /> The sequence of chapters of a book is defined on the index page.
See for example : http://fr.wikisource.org/wiki/Pierrot_%28Contes_de_la_b%C3%A9casse%29
See also http://fr.wikisource.org/wiki/Utilisateur:ThomasV/headers for a comprehensive demonstration of what can be done with headers
Lars Aronsson a écrit :
Is it true that {{header|previous= |next= }} must be filled in manually for each chapter? Couldn't this be automated in the same way as ProofreadPage links "<" and ">" in a linear sequence, if you provide the table of contents in a central place? If that TOC contained the page number intervals and sections, everything in the chapter page could be automated, right?
Is it true that full text search leads to to the Page: and not to the main namespace page that transcludes it? And that the former has no link to the latter?
If I search "the right understanding of the machine", I find http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Page:The_Kinematics_of_Machinery.djvu/24 but I don't find http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_Kinematics_of_Machinery/Introduction
How could that be improved? Is another Extension necessary?
