* '''Autolinks:''' I'm not so excited about it because all systems with automated population I know are never transparent. You never know when an item will appear and when it will suddenly disappears. I understand the intention but I'm not sure if it is reliable for the target group. | * '''Autolinks:''' I'm not so excited about it because all systems with automated population I know are never transparent.
