Add exception for handling of "Crossroads" in wiki links #302

Closed emmiegit closed 2 years ago

As mentioned both in chat and on its talk page, the Crossroads page is in an unusual position. Because it refers to a few different concepts (the land Crossroads, the concept of crossroads in general, or hub lands), it should be a disambiguation page. However, this is not currently possible because the game links to Crossroads specifically for the land, and having it link to a disambiguation page would be unhelpful.

As such, the proper solution is to ensure the wiki link provided in-game is unambiguously in reference to the land "Crossroads", and then the wiki can structure itself in a manner that makes sense without worrying about disrupting game users.
