[tw5] Re: Best way to cite the source of WikiText snippets?
Si, I have a field I create in any tiddler relating to discussions we have here in GG. In edit mode I just create the "discussion" field and past the link to the GG item. I have a small viewTemplate that displays the link as "discussion" at the bottom of any tiddler found like that. In the near future I intend provide an opportunity to drop one or more links on a tiddler and create one or more fields with the suffix "-link", then the caption for such a link can be anything before the "-link" in 5.2.0 and its new field naming freedom. Your stylesheet example however may best be handled using Sorens suggested comments areas. Keep in mind you can build a way to find and display such comments from any tiddler especially if you make a de facto standard; eg Then you can search for tiddlers with lines beginning

I use a comment with the link: Currently you can't use comments until you reach the end of the pragmas in a tiddler, but that's slated to be fixed in 5.2.0.
