Titles
==Titles==
* Almost all titles in a wiki adhere to the general principle that all words are written with minor letters, and only use capitals in titles (example: {{wl|[[http://www.diabloii.net/Media_coverage media coverage]] }} versus {{wl|[[http://www.diablowiki.net/High_Heavens High Heavens]]}}). {{WikiTitle}} itself transform the first letter of any title to a capital letter, which is unimportant for the naming. It's the equivalent of the first word of a sentence. This holds true with articles, boilerplates, categories and templates. If in doubt, check with other contributors.* [[Disambiguation]]s (cases where two articles or two categories with the same name mean completely different things) use a space and a parenthesis with a clarification like this: [[Barbarian (Diablo II III class)]] or this: [[:Category:Locations (lore)]]. The word in the parenthesis is always minor letters.
* [[Article]]s are almost exclusively used in singular ("Barbarian" instead of "Barbarians" etc). If it is at all possible to use singular form, do so.
* [[Category]] titles use a similar logic to articles, where a two-worded category title uses a minor letter for the second word like this: [[:Category:Art books]]. Categories are almost exclusively used in singular ("Category:Maps" instead of "Category:Map").
