I was wondering why the front page news stories do not link to the corresoding title in the Encyclopedia anymore.

I found that to be very helpful when I wanted to find out more details or synopsis of the mentioned title. Now I have to go through a couple of layers to find the title and hope that I remember how to spell the title correctly.

I really do miss that feature.

Thank you.

On a possibly (?) related note, I've noticed that the links to reviews don't seem to be added to the encyclopedia pages either. Two examples of this are Shana (missing links to the volume 2 and 3 reviews) and Basilisk (missing links to the volume 3 and 4 reviews). Is this a manual process, or is it something that's supposed to be automatic?[/url]

I've been wondering about this too. I assume it must have something to do with the different scripting language that's used on the site now. I find that it's sometimes not worthwhile to read the news posts without the Encyclopedia links.

The green links will be back soon and better than ever; I'm working on it as we speak.

Nope, that link was manually inserted. Look at other news.

On a semi-related topic.. would it be possible to have a link back to the article itself from the forum thread?
