Bug: Capitalizes The First Letter of link text

Unfortunately, a bug nobody told me about. This extension has the unfortunate side-effect of causing the first letter of the link display text on every link to be capitalized when only the title of the page is used as a link and when the link isn't piped whether or not you typed the first letter of the page title as a large or small letter within the link; where otherwise MediaWiki would let you use a minuscule character for the first character of the page title name within the brackets. As a result, unless I want to do a manual piping on every single link, I now end up with links to pages that aren't proper names and shouldn't be capitalized... displaying as capitalized. It's very awkward.


This is unfortunate, as this makes the wiki looks just about as ugly as it would have been with CategoryName: in the page title prefix. Very unfortunate. Looking for an alternative. Feel free to suggest alternatives.
