Prevent a WikiWord from automatically becoming a link by putting a tilde character (~) in front of it. For example, to prevent BMWs and McDonalds from becoming tiddler links, insert the ~ char like this:
Take the ~BMWs to ~McDonalds

DisableWikiLinksPlugin
The [http://www.tiddlytools.com/#DisableWikiLinksPlugin DisableWikiLinksPlugin] gives several options to customize automatic WikiWord linking, such as disabling it completely or only for tiddlers which don't already exist. After importing the plugin, these options must be enabled manually in the DisableWikiLinksPlugin tiddler; it may also be necessary to close and re-open the TiddlyWiki browser page before using the plugin for the first time.

All options are off by default, so settings applied by one user/in one browser will not be active for others. If you want to ensure that your options are in effect for, say, Web viewers, you can create a tiddler, e.g. DisableWikiLinksDefault, with a systemConfig tag and content like this:
config.options.chkDisableWikiLinks=false; config.options.chkAllowLinksFromShadowTiddlers=false; config.options.chkDisableNonExistingWikiLinks=false; config.options.txtDisableWikiLinksList="DisableWikiLinksList"; config.options.txtDisableWikiLinksTag="excludeWikiWords";

Set the values to the defaults you prefer (e.g. change "false" to "true").
