But I could have arrived at [[Military of Afghanistan]] either from 
[[Military]] or [[Afghanistan]]. Odds are I want to return to the page I 
came from, not the other one. For which purpose we have a little thing 
called a Back button in most browsers <g>, so the linkback's function is 
still there, really for the majority of cases. Given all the other 
problems subpages seem to cause, I agree that we can nix them.

PS. the meat world has caught up with me and I have had to cut down on my 
wiki activities for a while. But as [[Arnold|Terminator]] put it "I'll be 
back"
