A successful vote here will show general consensus that the Wiktionary community desires this software extension; that automatic/dynamic additions to the navigation "See also" links are desired.

  2.   Support Cynewulf 16:50, 31 August 2007 (UTC) Oh, I see, it just gives a union of the stuff in the explicit {{see}} and the set of existing pagenames that normalize to the same thing as the current page; it doesn't edit the explicit {{see}}. Looks good.[reply]

  6.   Support DAVilla 13:55, 2 September 2007 (UTC) although I would like to encourage Hippitrail to review the issue of order, even if it's a partial order i.e. keep the order of any explicit see terms, and fill in the rest where it seems most appropriate.[reply]
    I'm pretty sure he will when he's back online. If it goes a month or two, we could ask Brion to tweak it. --Connel MacKenzie 08:30, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  7.   Support H. (talk) 13:02, 3 September 2007 (UTC) Of course; we should automate everything which goes.[reply]

Someone somewhere asked for a copy of the code. I ran across bugzilla:8648 which has it. Sorry for the delay. --Connel MacKenzie 21:30, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
