Actually I think it would be good to add it for consistency. I can then link to the primitive page as a whole, the monadic version of the primitive specifically, or the dyadic version of the primitive specifically. E.g. http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/Vocabulary/greaterperiod http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/Vocabulary/greaterperiod#monadic http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/Vocabulary/greaterperiod#dyadic As in the examples above I think I'd call the anchors "monadic" and "dyadic", rather than "monad" and "dyad". It reads better i.e. "the monadic form of greaterperiod". But it's not that important. > I've inserted <<Anchor(dyad)>> in VocTemplate to try it out.

I've updated the greaterthan. page to show what's possible. I'm not sure I like it better than the previous version though. http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/Vocabulary/greaterthan./ > Ian > > > On Thu, Feb 11, 2010 at 3:20 AM, Sherlock, Ric > <r.g.sherl...@massey.ac.nz> wrote: > >> From: Ian Clark > >> > >> Hey that's looking good.
