Question

Some words become WikiWords even if we dont want them to. Using a bang infront of the word can disable this. However, many of our physics users have text that includes words like MeV and that are repeated in many topics.

Is it possible to define a list of words that will not be automatically become WikiWords?

Nope. But you could write a plugin to do it in about fifteen minutes. All you have to do is stick a <nop> in front of any words the plugin recognises. Look at InterwikiPlugin for inspiration.

There is no need to write a plugin, StopWikiWordLinkPlugin does exactly what you need (thanks Lynnwood for pointing it out.)
