Forum:Page name standards

Forums: Index > Watercooler > Page name standards

I’d like to advocate for extending page name standards. We have Name (world) and Name (star) fairly consistent. I think we need Name (subsector), Name (sector), and Name (domain) too. I am sure I will find more. Fortunately we can do most of these using Mediawiki’s move tool which creates a redirect so that nothing is broken.

The naming convention covers this topic. Normally we like to follow the Wikipedia naming conventions. This has the "name (x)" style used for disambiguation and not otherwise. The Sector names (using "name Sector") and Subector names (using "name Subsector") are used externally and should not be changed. Tjoneslo (talk) 23:09, 15 June 2020 (EDT)

BTW. We seem to use title case for page names while Wikipedia use initial capital unless there is a reason to capitalize following words. I will read our policy more thoroughly. —¿philoserf? (talk) 23:32, 15 June 2020 (EDT)
