Naming Convention


Since this Wiki is using words with at least two capital letters to name link/pages (like ChepeNolon), we've got to keep a strict policy on how we name the documents.

Names will be split into four sections. Name, level, a faction list, and part. Only the first two are mandatory.

Syntax:
[NameOfTheMission][Level][FactionList][Part]

Examples:

Mission Page Names

Currently mission pages have inconsistent capitalisation of their names. Instead of using lower case for articles, coordinate conjunctions and prepositions always capitalise each word. This allows the names to be processed programmatically. Besides, few people understand the grammar of capitalising titles properly.

If the name of the mission begins with either 'A', or 'The', the word is omitted.

Examples:

Level

A single digit from 1 to 5.

Faction List

A codified list of factions involved in the mission. Faction codes are always two letters long, and are defined below. Rogue drones and Mordus are not factions.

Example:

Faction Codes:

Part

If a mission has multiple parts which are detailed across more than one page then append the name with the letter 'p' followed by the number of the part.

Examples: EnemiesAbound4p1, EnemiesAbound4p3

Linking from the index page

By using the forced link, you can display custom text for the link: [[BetterWorld3 Level 3]] will show this: BetterWorld3 Level 3

So a complete line will be like this:

Worlds Collide (Angel / Sansha) [[WorldsCollide3ansa Level 3]] [[WorldsCollide4ansa Level 4]]
Better World, A [[BetterWorld3 Level 3]]

Displaying:

Worlds Collide (Angel / Sansha) WorldsCollide3ansa Level 3 WorldsCollide4ansa Level 4
Better World, A BetterWorld3 Level 3

Note: The 'a' and 'the' are placed last in the mission name. This is for easy sorting on the index page.
