WikiWord
A <nop>WikiWord consists of two or more words with initial capitals, run together. When you type a <nop>WikiWord, you establish a hyperlink. It's as easy as that. <nop>WikiWords are styled like this because: * It makes Wiki hyperlinks instantly recognizable * It leads to interesting Wiki topics * It avoids the need to fiddle with HTML tags * It avoids over-general topics because at least two words are required *Syntax of a <nop>WikiWord* * Uppercase letter(s) * Lowercase letter(s) * Uppercase letter(s) * Optional lowercase or uppercase letter(s) or number(s) *Good examples for <nop>WikiWords:* * WikiWord * GoodStyle * AVeryLongWikiTopicNameIsAlsoPossible * YearTwoThousand *Bad examples for <nop>WikiWords:* * Web: Name with no uppercase letter in between * T5Wiki: Name with number before the first lowercase letter * Know-How: Name with dashes in between *Hints* * Insert <nop>WikiWords wherever you can. Rich linking helps to make a Wiki successful. * To stop a <nop>WikiWord from being turned into a hyperlink, insert the text =<nop>= immediately before the <nop>WikiWord. * A topic is usually presented in the singular. Plural <nop>WikiWords are automatically linked to the singular topic, i.e. the link WikiWords links to the topic WikiWord. * Sometimes you have to be creative to find a good <nop>WikiName. Examples: * To create a topic about the the *Bread Slicer 1.2* product, use =BreadSlicer1dot2= or =BreadSlicer1pt2=, but not =BreadSlicer1.2=. * To create a topic about *year 2000*, you could go for =YearTwoK= or =YearTwoThousand=, but not =Year2K= or =Y2K= or =Y2000=. * Turn acronyms into <nop>WikiWords, i.e. take =FaqIndex= for a "FAQ index" topic. * You can create nicer looking links by using double square brackets, i.e. write =[<nop>[TWiki access control]]= to get a link to TWikiAccessControl that looks like [[TWiki access control]]. __Related Topics:__ WikiSyntax, TextFormattingRules
