[edit] Page Naming Conventions

Page Name is what goes in the URL, like: baltoco.org/wiki/BaltoCo:Style
Page Title is the 'headline' of a page -- currently in color #700 (dark red).

  • Alpha-Numerics are OK -- Lower & Upper Case: Area_405 or SoWeBo
  • Popular abbreviations or acronyms, no . periods: AVAM or Mr_Boh
  • Try for friendly & legible: Ebony_and_Irony
  • Hyphens (minus, negative, dash) are OK: E-Newsletters
  • No plus + signs, commas, & ampersands: Thomas D'Alesandro, Jr. => Thomas_DAlesandro_Jr
  • Underscores_Connect_Words
  • No other punctuation ? tentatively_a_convenience
  • Colons are used in Namespace:SpecialPage, like BaltoCo:Style -- so, no colons (or semicolons).
  • Slashes /\ Equals = Question Marks ? Ampersands & Percents % are part of URL processing
  • "Quotes" or `ticks` apos' [squares] <angles> {curlies} (parens) are part of OS processing
  • Accents should be anglacised: Café Hon & Minás => Cafe_Hon & Minas

The subtitle line can 'correct' or enhance (disambiguate) the full name.

  • Report any problems or ambiguities on this page.
