In TD's Connections section, the following links just don't deserve full sentences: Little Lord Fauntleroy, Minneapolis, Memphis, Seattle, San Diego, Sacramento, hairdryer.

I am 100% against the idea of information, of any kind, being cut. Hardly any information is not notable. I'm fine with loosing bullets and subheadings, but I'm not okay with information being cut because someone does not find it noteworthy - everyone finds different information more noteworthy than others.

What I would be happy with is a sentence somewhere saying:


 * Other concepts/idea in this episode are: Hairdryer, blah, blah, blah.

Or even your suggestion, CzechOut, I would be fine with.

I just don't think that any information should be cut. I think, reducing it to one of sentences (for some? for all?) for the current 'references' will bring Users to other parts of the Data Core, and allow them to discover knew information.

Imagine (I don't know why I'm trying to sell you the idea, when you are already behind it) a User looking through Dalek. They see hairdryer - and instead of reading it like they do know, it encourages them to click on the link - find out new information and about other stories and also might encourage them to edit elsewhere.
