Page Names

Matter-of-factly, Pie allows you to choose any name for a page. Well, almost any. There are a few characters that must not be included in neither pages name, nor file names, notably [ and ], which embody special control functionality, and #, which serves as a delimiter to split a page name from a page anchor. Depending on the site configuration, additional characters may be off limit, required, or expected.

For example, it is often considered good style to use capital letters as the first character of a page name (or file name), followed by an arbitrary sequence of upper case and lower case letters. Special characters, like punctuation, blanks, parentheses are encouraged by modern people, but frowned upon by old school hardliners who claim that proper names should be made up entirely by Wiki-names only.

The original way to name pages is to use Wiki-names, a.k.a. CamelCase. CamelCase strings consists of upper and lower case characters only. The first character must be an upper case character, followed by one or more lower case characters. However, somewhere after the second character of the name, another upper case character has to follow, which, in turn, is followed by lower case characters. You need at least two upper case characters to compose a valid CamelCase string with an arbitrary amount of lower case characters on the right side of each of them, respectively.

Whatever your style and naming convention, you should consistently use it throughout the entire site.
