question FL:
* should we use a prefix for term pages?
  e.g. "TL-", thus 'TL-Continuant' instead of 'Continuant'
 ** pros
  *** clear subset of pages for the termlist
  *** minimizing clash with pages for other purposes
      (but no particular case has occurred nor is conceived of)
 ** cons: more tedious cross-references during editing
