| CEG in the "New" section in [[Spring:CurrentSiteMap]] is an example of the Naming Convention described below.

| Pretty much all other pages should be subpages of one of these categories/superpages (the exception I would say are two pages, one grouping "content", the other grouping "coding" - AI, Engine and Lua.
| |
|
| |
| We only use one level of Super and Subpage (no Unit-Cob-Animation or similiar). Superpages should match with categories.

| ''Ie do we use CamelCase or write out the name seperately (words seperated by space " ") ? And pagenames - entire sentences, or limit to one or two words? Of course we don't have to force this on everything, but perhaps guidelines could be useful.'' [[User:Seanheron|Seanheron]] 00:17, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

| For pages in a language other than english, please name the page '''exactly as the english one''' just with an (la) attached at the end [la for language - use the two letter code of the language you're using, ie (fr) for french, (de) for german, etc.]. | | For the sake of maintainability the Spring wiki is currently English language only. Non-English language pages '''will''' be tagged for deletion! |
| | |
| To stay consistent, always attach the (de) directly to the name, without a space in between.
| |
| | |
| To use a native language page title, please make a redirect to the page named according to the convention just described here (ie make a page "Page_principale" with the content: #REDIRECT [[MainPage(fr)]].

| ''I wouldn't bother with seperate language versions for now, to be honest (and just stick to english - that's lacking enough. But whatever. [[User:Seanheron|Seanheron]] 00:29, 23 August 2009 (UTC)''

| ==Regarding Namespaces==
| |
| | |
| ''I'd suggest we keep our page sorted in three namespaces - one for talking about the website, pages like this (Namespace: Spring). Then our main namespace, that is what we want people "from outside" to be able to see of the site - this is what is listed in the [[CurrentSiteMap]].'' | |
| ''And finally we can still leave room for people to mess around in, but I think we should make an effort for it not to be so visible towards the outside - that's why I'd suggest stuff like the Clan info and Strategy guides for individual games go in a seperate namespace (perhaps "Talk" or "User"? - of course we could create one, but I think that's not going to happen... User is probably good.). [[User:Seanheron|Seanheron]] 00:17, 23 August 2009 (UTC)''

| |
| | |
| So as to keep some order, we'll draw up some page naming conventions here, shall we ?
| |
| | |
| The most immediate issue is subpage naming - we currently have CEG_Something (COB_same) and Unit:Other (Map:Aswell).
| |
| | |
| It would be neater to have that all in the same style, and while we're at it, decide on when to use a "subpage" like style, and when to use names without prefixes.

Page Naming Conventions
Regarding Sub-pages
For which sections of the Site
Only pages within the "Development" section of the Site-structure should use sub-pages. All pages in this Section should be either Super or Sub-page. The Super-pages are the following:
- Engine
- Mapdev
- Gamedev
- AI
- Lua
- Unit
- Model
- Animation
- CEG
Pretty much all other pages should be sub-pages of one of these categories/super-pages (the exception I would say are two pages, one grouping "content", the other grouping "coding" - AI, Engine and Lua.
We only use one level of Super and Sub-page (no Unit:Cob:Animation or similar). Super-pages should match with categories.
Separator
Use a ":" to separate between the super and sub-page. So we have Units:UnitDefs, Mapdev:SMD, AI:Interface, etc.
Regarding naming
Please use short phrases for Names within the Site-structure. Using more than three words is advised against, two will usually be optimal. CamelCase is probably the easiest way of achieving naming consistency (as Capitalisation is clear), avoid spaces in page names.
Language versions
For the sake of maintainability the Spring wiki is currently English language only. Non-English language pages will be tagged for deletion!
