Suggestion box
Just thought of a quick idea for comments / wall postings.
Some sort of BBcode or tag system to mark sentence numbers in coment text so they can be turned automatically into links.
e.g. "See also ##250165"
would turn into
"See also <a href=tatoeba.org/eng/sentences/show/250165>250165</a>"
I was just about to suggest the same thing. This would be immensely useful.
Yes, it's something I've been thinking about as well... But the question is, what format to use?
As far as I'm concerned, I'd tend to write it with only one #.
"See also #250165"
But perhaps it's too simple and there can be issues with this, I don't know.
I think ## is better
I also recommend ## rather than #, because you will be less likely to get false positives.
How about using the "nº"? It will hardly be used for anything else and is available on every page by the sentence number, ready to be copied along with it.
Except that there is no "nº" displayed on 'the Wall' so it would only really work for comments there, not posts here as well.
Why would there need to be one displayed on the Wall? It's where you look up the sentence number.
... well, unless you have it memorised.
Sentence numbers are also included in the csv export files. (Which I often work from)
OK, I'll admit it - I just don't like nº's.
Actually, perhaps it's just easiest to go with something dead-easy. The #<number> is nicer than the ##<number> unless the latter markup were trimmed somehow, but that would make the usage unclear to new users.
The occasional false-positive wouldn't be obtrusive and well balanced out by getting people to drop the use of the hash character in their writing.
Oh, and if we're building a bike-shed, I want it red and will fight anyone who thinks otherwise tooth and nail!
A format I've seen other places is sentence #123, which is convenient because you can generalize it to list #123, wall #123, etc. Sentence links may be common enough to warrant a shorter special syntax, though.
I also think the syntax should be kept in the final post, e.g. if you use ##, it should turn into <a href=tatoeba.org/eng/sentences/show/123>##123</a>, so new users can immediately tell how it's done. Using the format other places, like in the message logs, also helps discoverability.
