   Format: MarkdownItexAt [[Chevalley-Eilenberg chain complex]] the link to [[Chevalley-Eilenberg cochain complex]] was grey as was the adjacent link. Initially in the first version by Zoran that link was active. I think that the hyphen was being seen as something else. I changed it back but note that Toby in one of the revisions had made a change to the original. Is it - against -- or what? I am bemused! (as usual!) BTW the equation giving the differential was very awkwardly formatted, so I changed the formatting a bit.

   Format: MarkdownItex> Is it - against – or what? Yes, I believe the problem here was use of a unicode dash. It is the same kind of thing as 15. currently at [[nlabmeta:Technical TODO list]], we should handle putting a redirect in place automatically. Actually I believe in this case there was a redirect in place once upon a time, but it got mangled during the unicode issues; I have now fixed that. My personal preference would be to keep things simple and use ascii unless there is clearly no ascii character which serves the purpose. Thanks for fixing it!
