What is a WikiName ?
since 1.3
Note: As of 1.3, page names are no longer required to be in WikiName format. Any printable character (including Unicode characters) is permitted other than the following:
Please note that spaces are converted internally to the _ character, but will display as spaces.
[ ] { } % + | ? = < > ' " / 0x00-0x1f 0x7f ,Please note that spaces are converted internally to the _ character, but will display as spaces.
A WikiName - often called a CamelCase word - is a string composed by two or more capitalized words joined together without spaces, like ThisIsANewPage.
WikiNames are easy to read, write and remember, and distinctive enough to be recognized by a wiki engine as HyperLinks.
