Property / content type for person-links
The names of the employees are within the text at random places? Two ways to go.. the editors can do this manually by just creating a link to the employees page, or automatically, by parsing the property and using regex to search for the names and replace them with a link to the employees page.

Ok, thanks, but what about references the other way around: On Emplyee Bjørge Sæther's page, articles with links to this page is listed.
How do you query for pages with references to Bjørge Sæther's page ?
Again, thanks

I would use the SearchDataSource for this, you can also use the FindPagesWithCriteria method. See my post Extending search field with suggestion box and EPiServer FindPagesWithCriteria and FindAllPagesWithCriteria for some code samples.

Thank you so much !
The search field with suggestions is very interesting, too !
A lot to do in the future, obviously... ;-)

I am working on a way to connect persons in articles with persons in employee-database. E.g.:
"One of our developers, Bjørge Sæther, says that the new Web site is built on EPiServer CMS."
We want to insert a kind of link to this page as well as being able to list this article on my page.
Anyone having done something like this before ?
I have thought of 2 possible slutions:
1. Create a custom type of DynamicContent
2. Create derived string & xhtml property types, where content is scanned for tags, etc., and puts person references in a behind-the-scene page property. This one may later be used for selecting pages "tagged" with the employee in question.
What do you think ?
