WikiWord 3 - 11 May 2002 - Main.PeterThoeny
Line: 1 to 1
 A WikiWord consists of two or more words with initial capitals, run together.

When you type a WikiWord, you establish a hyperlink. It's as easy as that.

Line: 32 to 33
 Hints

  • Insert WikiWords wherever you can. Rich linking helps to make a Wiki successful.

  • Be specific. All topics in a web share one name space. For example, instead of FunctionalSpec write BreadSlicerFunctionalSpec because other projects might also have a functional spec topic.
 
  • To stop a WikiWord from being turned into a hyperlink, insert the text <nop> immediately before the WikiWord.
  • A topic is usually presented in the singular. Plural 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 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 WikiWords, i.e. take FaqIndex for a "FAQ index" topic.

  • You can specify any link label by using double square brackets, e.g. write [[TWikiAccessControl][access control]] to get a link to TWikiAccessControl that looks like access control.
