day-page of first diki-page for 2006-05-18.

We keep on imaginig that every contribution here’d be saved on an own time-stamped day-page.

What would be different. When editing you’d only edit a contribution, eiher your new page if you make a new one or another persons’ contribution when you fix a typo, correct a link or so (not talking about editing the document-mode wiki “mother-page” - here it would be first diki-page). For writing new signed text you always use a new tsdp (time-stamped day-page).

Advantage: It’s often horribly difficult to find a text passage on long wiki-pages. Even if you just want to correct a simple thing you hang there searching the screen for the place in the edit mode. Control + F textsearch doesn’t work in edit mode. Having pages on their own for every contribution would simplify this enormously.

Disadvantage: In edit-mode you do not see the whole text anymore and you need that as you need to reread it while editing. A serious problem.

I have seen on an oddmuse-wiki with the comment-function activated (it’s not activated here) a beautiful solution of this problem. I don’t remember where and do not find it though.
The edit window was below all the page text readable in regular read-mode above. Very elegant. Where was that? Could it be “faked in” here somehow? I fear we are about to reach the peak of what’s possible, eh? ;)
