Basic guidelines
There are few basic guidelines which are good to keep in mind while naming articles:
- Use descriptive names
- Names can consist of several words
- Numbers and spaces are allowed
- Do not use special characters like # < > [ ] | { }
- Names are case-sensitive
- mediaWiki is same as MediaWiki but not same as mediawiki
- Capitalization matters after the first letter but not in the first letter
