Heh.  Sorry.  These are called 'WikiWords', and were once the most
common way of creating links on wikis of all flavors.  They've been
turned off on PmWiki since version 2.1.0, but you're running version
2.0.10.  You might want to upgrade.

Failing that, I think you can disable 'wikiwords' by putting this in
your local/config.php file:

	// Set $LinkWikiWords to zero if you want to disable WikiWord links
		$LinkWikiWords = 0;                      # disable WikiWord links

The site looks really good, by the way,
