When I create a topic for "Bolo the Hutt", I also create an alias "Bolo" because I want to have links appear even when I don't list his full name.
Now, when I enter "Bolo the Hutt" in another topic, I get a collision warning because both "Bolo" and "Bolo the Hutt" are possible links. However, it's a nonsensical collision because one is just a link to the other. It's a bit of a strange thing to deal with (which words do I want to be a link?) but some logic that determines if both elements in the collision are the same topic (via aliases) and just links the main topic rather than the alias (or the longer of the two or whatever) would be helpful. I understand that if "Bob" and "Bob Smith" are two separate topics then the collision alerts is necessary, but when they are aliases of the same topic then it's far less relevant. Does this make sense? Not a critical improvement, just an annoyance that I ran into. Last edited by MaxSupernova; May 1st, 2014 at 07:35 PM. |
