= Wiki Page Names =

Wiki page names commonly use the CamelCase convention. Within wiki text, any word in CamelCase automatically becomes a hyperlink to the wiki page with that name.

CamelCase page names must follow these rules:

  1. The name must consist of '''alphabetic characters only'''. No digits, spaces, punctuation, or underscores are allowed.
  2. A name must have at least two capital letters.
  3. The first character must be capitalized.
  4. Every capital letter must be followed by one or more lower-case letters.
  5. The use of slash ( / ) is permitted in page names (possibly representing a hierarchy).

If you want to create a wiki page that doesn't follow CamelCase rules you can use the following syntax: {{{

System Message: ERROR/3 (<string>, line 15)

Unexpected indentation.
  • [wiki:Wiki_page], [wiki:ISO9000]
  • [wiki:"Space Matters"] that page name embeds space characters
  • or simply: ["WikiPageName"]s (MoinMoin's internal free links style)

System Message: WARNING/2 (<string>, line 18)

Block quote ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent.

}}}

This will be rendered as:
  • [wiki:Wiki_page], [wiki:ISO9000]
  • [wiki:"Space Matters"] that page name embeds space characters
  • or simply ["WikiPageName"] (MoinMoin's internal free links style)

Finally, and as exemplified in the line above, one can also append an anchor to a Wiki page name, in order to link to a specific section within that page. The anchor can easily be seen by hovering the mouse over a section heading, then clicking on the [[html(&para;)]] sign that appears at its end. The anchor is usually generated automatically, but it's also possible to specify it explicitely, see WikiFormatting#using-explicit-id-in-heading
