I would like to move a few pages around, to make them adhere to some simple to remember naming conventions. The following therefore is a suggestion, please feel free to discuss, add and comment. When there is enough of a consensus, ReletBot could do the dirty work. -- relet 15:35, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
The one rule to remember
one rule to bind them all
- As in Wikipedia.en, only the first word of every page is capitalized, unless some words are capitalized in the English language (i.e. proper nouns, days of week, etc.).
Achievements and ribbons
ever managed to spell Category:Curse_of_Unawareness_consolation_prize correctly?
- Achievement pages shall include the word "achievement". Consolation prize pages shall include the word "consolation prize".
- The corresponding ribbon shall be named [[Template:X]] for the X achievement or consolation prize.
- The corresponding category shall be named identical to the achievement.
- e.g.: Abduction achievement, Template:Abduction, Category:Abduction achievement (<-contains one misnomer, currently)

I support both. I would have argued for book title capitalization, but the Wikipedia standard is reluctantly acceptable to me.
I also suggest avoiding words in page titles that have variant english spellings (e.g. ize/ise, our/or, and the doubled l in participles). So use "Travel" instead of "Travelling," for example. -Robyn 17:05, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
