Spelling out the whole term is really not that hard, and there’s always copy/paste.
Abbreviations are very useful when the ratio between the name and the quoted text is appropriate; For instance, if I'd say "TKD has more words than KGT, and all new words from TKW are listed in KGT" writing these titles would take more space than the rest of the sentence. I've decided to do a mix of both, i.e. keeping common things abbreviated, and rare things like "Constellations" can be written out compeltely. Anyone can do what they want; I just wanted to find a common agreement, to avoid a mixture like for Discovery, some people use STD, then the people at Memory Alpha abbreviate DIS, even though DSC has been offically proclaimed as the way to do it (but they also use the silly word "Klingonese" all over the place, so who cares) -- Lieven L.
