Title

Titles don't usually take full capitalization (at least on the Wiki) unless they are names. - Snail 11:41, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

  • Indeed. That makes articles easier to link to when their titles are embedded into a sentence. We don't have a guideline for this here at the FSWiki, though most wikis that I know of use the "Don't capitalize everything" principle. - TopAce 12:17, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
    • Well if you have to remove the capitalization do it in all articles, like Stealthing Ships To Force Target Loss. --- Mobius
      • We'll have to create a bot to do this eventually I think. Though how exactly it's going to discern between names and titles is beyond me. - Snail 12:40, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

          • Linking them is more difficult, because you've got to always use the [[article name|how it appears in your sentence]].
