Copy-and-pasting works, but yuck!
You don't use search very often, do you?
Otherwise you would easily have found
TWiki:Codev.CloneTopicLinkUnderMore.
You also don't return to your own
TWiki:Codev.FeatureRequests,
otherwise you would have read my comment at
TWiki:Codev.AddCopyTopic.
Well, we members of the
TWiki:Codev.TWikiCommunity are used to answer all kinds of (...) questions patiently (over and over again, cause (...) people don't RTFM)

I think it should be in the standard oopmore, not something that people add. As to it being non-wiki-like, I use it primarily with searches that I'm going to then modify, and things like that. When you're developing a
TWikiApplication, one often has boilerplate code that one reuses with modifications.
As to searching, this directly relates to all of the cruft debate. I've pretty much given up on searching because I get so many false hits.

If this is already checked in, its state should be changed to "Waiting Release"
The wording needs change.
Item1873: changed order on page; updated form with SCRIPTURL instead of SCRIPTURLPATH+SUFFIX; added css classes; added explanation; made nowysiwyg default
Should we also add the checkbox "allow non wiki words", to prevent users from creating topics with any name?
