What should we do with links to TG? --Amroth 20:04, 1 January 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I always keep forgeting some of the fields. "Articleurl" and "articlename" should better be just "url" and "title". Not because I am forgetful but I think it would be easier and perhaps more logical. I am not suggesting to change the field-names but perhaps create an or function with "url" being understood as a substitute of "articleurl". Sage 10:59, 15 November 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

No. It was deliberately designed because some people will take "url" to mean website URL whilst "title" could be mistaken for both website name or the title when you hover over a link. I did think about this quite a lot when I made this. --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 23:26, 15 November 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
