This is a bug, but fixing it is very tricky. Consider what would happen if
example.mdwn were created: example/page.html and the rest of example/*

would need to be updated to change the parentlink from a bare word to a

to be updated again. So example/* depends on example. But it's even more
tricky, because if example.mdwn is modified, we _don't_ want to rebuild

That's also what I think: such discussions or comments on [[forum]] discussion
pages, or generally on all pages' [[Discussion]] subpages, can be removed if
either they're simply not valid / interesting / ... anymore, or if they've been
used to improve the *real* documentation. --[[tschwinge]]

Shouldn't there be some clean-up at some point for those that have been
resolved? Or should all of them be kept online forever?

So, I guess it depends on whether you want to represent the development of the
software (meaning: which bugs are open, which are fixed) *(a)* in a snapshot of
the repository (a checkout; that is, what you see rendered on
<http://ikiwiki.info/>), or *(b)* if that information is to be contained in the
backing repository's revision history only. Both approaches are valid. For
people used to using Git for accessing a project's history, *(b)* is what
they're used to, but for those poor souls ;-) that only use a web browser to
access this database, *(a)* is the more useful approach indeed. For me, using
Git, it is a bit of a hindrance, as, when doing a full-text search for a
keyword on a checkout, I'd frequently hit pages that reported a bug, but are
tagged `done` by now. --[[tschwinge]]
