Linking names to user pages (added by Dale)
Ian Weller, expressed[1] concern with FWN's use of CamelCase linking to user pages in the wiki. Since users can have arbitrary usernames completely unrelated to their full name, it is impractical for us to manually link to User:foo.
Also, I can imagine a desire to link to info for people who have no wiki account, but maybe that's just my imagination.
If there were an extension we could use to reference humans in a form such as
| {{{REAL-NAME}}} | |
|---|---|
| [[Image:{{{image}}}|none|none|{{{REAL-NAME}}}]] | |
| Personal Information | |
| Birthday: | {{{birthday}}} |
| Birthplace: | {{{birthplace}}} |
| Home: | {{{HOME}}} |
| Miscellaneous Information | |
| private Mail: | {{{pmail}}} |
| GPG-Key: | {{{gpg}}} |
| Homepage: | {{{homepage}}} |
| Jabber: | {{{jabber}}} |
and have it derive the appropriate User:page where it exists that would be very helpful.
I haven't yet checked to see if this topic is being discussed on the docs or wiki lists.

Linking to archived postings
I've lately been trying to consciously avoid referencing mailing list or wiki pages using HTTPS. HTTPS links necessitate a heavier load on client, server and network. Encryption takes work on both ends and breaks proxy caches.
Once you've logged into the wiki, it unfortunately(?) directs all traffic over. Even the listinfo pages[1] use https to link to their archives. SSL, so a copy/paste is going to require editing.
I know I've seen a reference arguing the same concept, but can't find it right now.
