Linked pages

Sources, people, companies and topics

Every source becomes a page with a summary, key ideas, notable claims and quotes. The people, companies, products and topics it mentions get pages of their own, and each of those keeps a list of every source that mentions it.

$ openwiki ingest --all
$ openwiki lint --fix-index

The more you add, the denser the web gets. A founder who appears in ten talks ends up with one page linking to all ten.

Incremental and safe to re-run

Unchanged files are skipped, failures are listed in wiki/ingest_failures.json and retried next time, and openwiki lint reports broken links, missing frontmatter and orphan pages. The raw text files stay the source of truth, so you can always rebuild the wiki.
