+Update Links on Rename Plugin for An Otter Wiki
+
+When a page is renamed this plugin rewrites all WikiLinks (``[[...]]``)
+in the wiki that point to the old page so that they point to the new
+page name instead. This implements the request from
+https://github.com/redimp/otterwiki/discussions/210 (issue #228).
+
+It demonstrates the ``page_renamed`` hook and shows how a plugin can
+read, modify and commit page content through the storage API.
+
+Scope / limitations:
+- Only WikiLinks (``[[Page]]``, ``[[Title|Page]]``) are updated, matching
+  what the bundled "referencingpages" example can already discover. Plain
+  Markdown links (``[text](/Page)``) are intentionally left untouched.
+- Matching is exact for the renamed page. Child pages and attachment links
+  are not rewritten (see issue #65 for attachments).
+- Renaming pages is not the only way to opt out: set
+  ``UPDATE_LINKS_ON_RENAME = False`` in your settings.cfg to keep the plugin
+  installed but disabled (a per-rename checkbox is not currently exposable
+  via the plugin API).
