Consolidation of "Insert Link" list?
I've got a wiki that has 500+ pages ( seagarden.pbwiki.com if you're so inclined, though be advised it's not all public!) and so when I need to choose a page to link to, the list is excessively long, which means lots of scrolling and (for me, at least), missing the page until I've scrolled past it a few times!
Of course, having the "recently created" pages as links is helpful, but often I need one that's not recent :)
Is there a way to consolidate the links list -- this is in 2.0, mind -- into folders, or be able to type in the beginning of the name, so relevant pages only pop up?
I tried fidding with the crtl+L and bracketing to make links, but that didn't seem to work. I'm in Firefox now, though I usually use Safari.

I’m hoping this can be resolved!

Inappropriate?Hi there,
We have this as a feature request now, I'll make sure to add your comments.
I think you've got some great ideas about how to make this feature work, and I'll make sure they're heard.
In the meantime, I don't really have a solution for you, except to keep recently created/edited pages open in tabs on your browser, so you can grab the URL directly to make a link. -

Inappropriate?Just following up to see if there's been any movement on this!
I'm trying to brainstorm myself to think of other options... even putting in an option where you can type in the first few letters and it comes up alphabetically? :)
I’m curious

Inappropriate?I posted another thread before finding this. I thought an edit you type into and it does an incremental match anywhere in the list of pages, so you start with the full list and as you type the list shrinks
I’m happy not to be alone

Inappropriate?jac2 -- That's exactly what I was hoping for. I'm thinking since the Files box already has a "Browse" text entry-esque box, there would definitely be room for one on the Links page... Please, oh, please!
I’m brainstorming!
