Shown is a section of a edited  tiddler where a wiki link is appearing in the preview and  when not defined as a link. It also appears when the edit is finished and the tiddler saved.

Note: I'm using this particular tiddlywiki to create notes similar to handwritten notes from a class to help burn the info to the brain and reference later on. 

PS: Does anyone know how to generate an index similar to a Word Processor that point to a relevant section a keyword exists? Either a macro or plugin?

A novices inquiring mind wishes to know.
TIA

That's called a camel case word.

If you don't like that feature, you can turn it off in the control panel:

It's hard to tell from your brief description, but you may be interested in refnotes:

Ah, I had not associated that selection with it. For some reason I was thinking it only applied to coding. That resolved it. (Note to others: Disabling or enabling this feature requires a restart)

Re: TW-Refnotes
I installed it. I should have used an analogy of an index in a reference book.  Refnotes would be time/labor intensive to go back and retrofit it to an existing wiki or even one that is still a work in progress unless you use it from the beginning.

Not that creating an Index wouldn't be as well. I can imagine a plugin to export the content against an ignore set of words, then wacking the irrelevant lines from it then import it again. But I lack the knowledge of javascript, TW and the time to pursue the idea.

Note: TOC could be finer grained but the current fixed-fluid and fluid-fixed format fights it. If we could grab a handle between the windows and adjust the width on the fly it could make it workable for the time you need to take a deeper look. You have to do it now in order to find a specific labeled tiddler with the  $:/  when you only know a partial string to do a lookup. The fluid-fixed option cuts off the longer tiddlers to the right. Hence the need to jump into the Control Panel to switch the setting.
