WikiWord 4 - 18 Jan 2003 - Main.PeterThoeny
|
| | 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. | | | | |
<
< |
- AVeryLongWikiTopicNameIsAlsoPossible?
| >
> |
- AVeryLongWikiTopicNameIsAlsoPossible? : wherever an uppercase or lowercase letter is allowed, a group of letters of the same case is allowed
| | |
Bad examples for WikiWords: | |
<
< |
- Web: Name with no uppercase letter in between
- T5Wiki? : Name with number before the first lowercase letter
| >
> |
- Web: Name without the uppercase letter(s), lowercase letter(s), uppercase letter(s) sequence
- T5Wiki? : Name with number before the uppercase, lowercase, uppercase sequence
- Md5sumsAfterBurning? : Name with number before the uppercase, lowercase, uppercase sequence
| | |
- Know-How: Name with dashes in between
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.

- It is recommended to create topics with singular names. 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.

 The topic is assumed to be in the current TWiki web. Prepending the name of a TWiki web and a period links to a topic in another web.
