Hello
Is it possible to make wiki linking (like [[article name]]) an
automatic
process for articles ?
I mean, like you write text in a wiki page, then you click >>suggest
links>>
button, then it links all the applicable article
names in the page,
then you
review and save the page (if not, just discard
them). making sure not
to
duplicate the links and using a link exception
list so that words
aren't
linked (like is are she he they them could can
etc.)..

I think most people create links as they go along, using their
judgement as to which links would be helpful and which would not (i.e.
which concepts might need further explanation). If you can write an
article (decide what information is important and how much explanation
to give), you should be able to choose the links as you write. They
are the same skill.
The suggestor would not be intelligent and couldn't judge which links
are related and which would be appropriate to suggest. I see no
advantage over just going through the article and placing double
square brackets around particular concepts, words and phrases.

Actually, that is part of what Web 2.0 is about. It is the contribution of
intelligent people which makes a wiki.
