Rails begins the sentence, cars does not, but I didn't realise I got that wrong during the edit. My bad. Can we un-capitalise cars, at least?

We don't have an official ruling on that one I think is the main issue, so I have to go by what it seems is generally done. For the Undine, I know I don't like the idea of having half the hyperlink italicised, so I only do Undine and we only call the Dreadful Wale's page "Dreadful Wale", not "The Dreadful Wale". A bit roundabout, yes, but it does make sense to me. Could we just get an official ruling on linking or not linking "the" in articles? It would make things easier for everyone, I reckon.

For Trimble, we tend to use the full name for a link first time it appears (e.g. "Kirin Jindosh", then afterwards just "Jindosh"), yet we only use "Trimble" as the link to "William Trimble". I know it's made more confusing by the fact that he's often called "Nure Trimble", but as his occupation is mentioned immediately before his name, so the page should probably say "...as his nurse, William Trimble.", not "as his nurse, Trimble." like it currently does. Again, it's a thing that's generally done but not actually in the MoS.
