gollark: Is it one of those knockoff python ints with 8 bits of capacity?
gollark: Too bad.
gollark: Are you storing the count in an `i8`?
gollark: However, Minoteaur 36 refers to pages by ID, not by name, and I can't just make it point to an ID because a target page might not exist yet.
gollark: ```sqlCREATE TABLE links ( uid INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, fromPage INTEGER NOT NULL REFERENCES pages(uid), toPage TEXT NOT NULL, linkText TEXT NOT NULL, context TEXT NOT NULL, UNIQUE (fromPage, toPage));```Minoteaur uses this advanced "table" to store "links" between "pages".
