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
