I put a sample of the wiki trail concept on
http://pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/PmCalendar
See rating in the top matter.... it will take you to
the index page for the trail.  I added my own Profile
page to that and then added a trail markup to my
Profile page.  Presto!

The PmCalendar page has a link Rating: to the trail index
using the count of the elements of the trail for
the link name.

Just thinking wiki...
