Editing in SWEET

Sam is reading an article on his institute’s wiki. He is reading about foo. He decides to add some of his own thoughts to foo. He decides to use SWEET since it shows him a plain text for the existing article. His reason for using SWEET is that he can put links automatically as he types along. 

As Sam begins to input his own thoughts he sees the second word he just typed in is underlinedSWEET has  suggested several web pages as possible links for that word. He looks at the underlined word and then at the first suggestion which is a link to another article in the same wiki. He decides that is a good link, tells SWEET to include that link and continues typing. He looks at the next word that becomes underlined.  Sam decides he likes the second suggestion better, it is a link to a page on MSN.com.  He continues typing his thoughts on foo.  Now the editor has underlined a phrase of three words. Sam is not quite familiar with the third suggestion so he previews the webpage first. He decides it was not what he was looking for, but while on that page he browsed to another page where he would like that phrase to be linked to. He tells SWEET to use that link instead, and then he keeps going on. Sam does not believe the next word that gets underlined needs a link so he just ignores it and doesn’t make a link. He repeats this process until he has completed his addition. He saves his work and feels very proud of his accomplishments
