Difference: WikiWord (2 vs. 3)
| 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. |
| 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.
