Hi, I'd say you've found all the documentation that there is about that :-/ Basically if the jspwiki.translatorReader.matchEnglishPlurals property is set to true, then pages ending with 's' are considered the same as their singular form when linking between them. It does not prevent you from having both kinds of pages - we fall back to the other one if the primary name does not exist.
Although doing the work, is a bit naive, so it is recommended only for english wikipages. Don't know if it would be worth implementing for a custom ReferenceManager, or if it could be implemented with a more complex logic or if it makes sense to mimic the same logic on the DefaultReferenceManager.. cheers, juan pablo On Mon, Sep 19, 2022 at 10:22 AM Murray Altheim <murra...@altheim.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I'm struggling with the modifications necessary to implement a replacement > ReferenceManager using a graph backend, and in a somewhat surprising place: > namely, passing tests related to parsing plurals.
