I am looking for some recommended methods for making it easy to put internal hyperlinks in content. I have checked out Linodef, but that requires the NID, which may be hard for users to find, especially if pathauto is running. Any recommendations?

I created a block that provides permalink type links in the footer of every node/* page something like:

$node = node_load(arg(1));
print 'http://example.com/node/' . arg(1);
print '<a href="http://example.com/node/' . arg(1) . '">' . $node->title . '</a>';

The real one is a bit fancier-- it uses disabled textboxes in a form and some instructional text but you get the idea.

You can add a button or autocomplete field (provided with Linodef) that contains all your nodes. So your users can enter the tag by typing or selecting the node title. If there is enough request I can also add an autocomplete block which transforms an entered title into a Linodef tag.

This sounds like a good workflow if I understand you correctly. To add a button or autocomplete field are you referring to what is described here http://drupal.org/node/342210 ?

This page is for module developers who want to create buttons in their favorite editor. However for admins there is an easier way when using BUEditor: http://drupal.org/node/501690

Furthermore a neat admin interface to create those buttons as well as support for WYSIWYG editors is in active development, see #334520: WYSIWYG API support.
