Section editing links
-
Hullo,
When trying to edit large articles (say, http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/PySide_Binding_Generation_Tutorial), it is just painful to do anything. Why? I found no way to just edit one section of the text. I can only edit everything - or nothing. This article in particular is about 25 kb long; what to do if I want to correct a "it's" to "its"? I just can't do it, I won't loose three minutes or so to find the right place in the text, then spend one second and a half for correcting, whereas a link to edit only that section would have allowed such a edit to be done in less than ten seconds, page loading included.
Would it be possible to add something like Wikipedia or DokuWiki?

That would probably mean to change the whole wiki engine. I doubt this is on the plans short to midterm, if ever.

In this particular case (and any other that is as long as this one) I would suggest that breaking into multiple pages is probably the first step. It can be just a simple "pagination" or, if possible, break into subsections. It will also help people read it.
Being able to edit the sections like meego.org would be nice ...

I've split that article into 5 smaller ones, here it is: http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/PySide_Binding_Generation_Tutorial.
