No, I understand basic links.

What I'm talking about is a series of quite separate tiddlywiki files each one of which has a short story.

There is a "master" tiddlywiki that doesn't have a short story but does have tiddlers that detail the characters, places in the village where the short stories are set.

What I *don't* want to do is copy the tiddlers from the master file into each of the story files, copy stamp, step and repeat, and have to keep them all in sync of I update one.

Why would I update one? Perhaps a character marries, gives birth or dies in one of the short stories. The 'master" would need to be updated, of course.

If this was a wiki like TWiki where items are files I could use a symlink or hardlink so that the one copy would 'appear' in all the others. But tiddlywiki isn't like that.

What I need is something akin to the tiddler "JohnSmith" under the "male Characters" on the master being "included" in a particular story.
Something akin to

<<includeRemoteTiddler  MasterFile.html#JohnSmith >>
perhaps with various option like "readonly" or "readwrite" and more.

The issue here is that the tiddler appears as and can be manipulated as if is a local tiddler (reference sections in it for example) even though its not:

That is, something like "JohnSmith::DateOfBirth" is meaningful

Of course if "JohnSmith::Spouse" is meaningful then there better be an <<includeRemoteTiddler>> for her!
