Implemented preferred links: universes, languages, chapters, language families, and user profiles will show up as name-based links (in most places) instead of ID-based links whenever they have the lowest ID number of pages with the same name. If there are other pages with the same name but a lower ID number, the site will use ID-based numbering like usual. Hopefully this will promote the usage (and convenience) of name-based linking.

Beware, though: because of this, someone can steal a named URL by reassigning an older post to have the same title. If you post a link to your constuff outside of Anthologica (or even on the forums) be aware that a name link may end up pointing elsewhere if someone feels mean or sneaky. If Nort (or someone else, but probably Nort) decides he has a god-given obligation to abuse this (or if people petition loudly enough) then I'll add an official name registry that supersedes the lowest-ID-number rule.
