It creates some problems with editing. If you change your mind and
want [[England]] to be an article of its own instead of #EQUALS
[[Great Britain]], where do you click to edit? One way could be to
give the article text an ID number, so that both names refer to the
same article number (in Unix, a hard link associates the filename with
the file content's inode number). When that article is displayed, at
the top of the page you list all its names as "synonyms" to the name
in the URL, with an edit link next to each name, separate from the
edit link to the article itself. This is quite a different system
from what we have today.
