Special:Badtitle/NS90:Forum:Wiki Talk/Two Words: Laconic. Hovercards.

Some Esoteric Trope Names probably can never be renamed, because nothing else is nearly as snappy. But I think there's another workable solution.

Take the "Hovercards" Beta feature, and modify it so that it displays the text for the associated Laconic sub-page, if available. It would display only the short description, cutting off just before the tag that precedes every "visit unabridged version HERE" message.

As a result, a new troper may browse an article, when he comes across an unfamiliar term. He hovers over it, and a brief description of the term is given, just like that. No need to open a new tab and risk starting a time-consuming wiki-walk, unless the laconic description interests him.

Is this feasible? Should we make this happen?
