This is not Word of God (tm). The page was blank, I threw up a few token lines, and then was unsatisfied with that and went and did a longer version.

I am so very, very open to changes, but... this is what I'm thinking right now. I realize we've basically done everything on an ad-hoc basis up to now and I'd kind of like to start getting the wiki into better shape (as if that will actually happen). ShanG 02:31, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

Well, prefixing everything as you've suggested is going to create unnecessary work for people to do - work that will get missed by people who've just joined or plainly can't be bothered. Plus it's messy, I'm not sure it'd ever get full enough to require it, hell, Wikipedia doesn't even bother with that kind of over-formalization.

Oh, well, you went ahead with it before discussion. Well that's that then. --James 22:42, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

Well... the main reason involves something I'm doing MUSH-side, where I'm going to set up automatic links to character pages in people's +fingers. And that creates an issue if you finger, say, 'Wormhole' and get a link to a page about einstein-roses bridges. If you don't think that's anything worth worrying about... yeah, we can not do it, I'm cool with that.

Don't worry about me going ahead and doing it. It was late. I was half asleep. Might have been an ill-considered decision. I can undo it just as easily. ShanG 01:01, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
