Motivation

[edit]

Easily create statements for this reference work in authority controls, external links sections, etc. —Justin (koavf)TCM 00:46, 4 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

As an aside, I haven't made the regex rule, but it's something like [a-z]-[a-z], i.e. lower case A to Z, a hyphen, then lower case A to Z. Some entries have middle names or maiden names, etc. Rarely something like https://www.uudb.org/ballou-hosea-2d/. —Justin (koavf)TCM 00:46, 4 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
