1) The "Article Naming Conventions" from the
Manual of Style is currently a mess imho. Look at
Special:Allpages, some articles capitalize all words, some only the first, others seems to follow some other arbitrary standard, e.g.
WP:ALBUMCAPS.
The same is true for sections (or headers, whatever you want to call them), some articles capitalize everything, some only the first word, and so on. The MoS seems to recommend the same naming conventions for sections as titles (see "Sections with additional info"), i.e. all words capitalized; but the last section of the MoS is called "Discussing
the Manual
of Style" and another one "Discussing
articles", i.e. some words aren't capitalized.
Using the
capitalization convention from Wikipedia would be awesome, but it isn't backwards compatible with the current "standard" -- so that would probably require to much work (currently ~350 articles)?
Suggestions?
2) Why are C++ articles called PlusPlus, e.g.
C PlusPlus? Afaik MediaWiki
doesn't have any problems with "+"s in titles.
3) I'm thinking about adding some info about the syntax highlighter and using <code> for
relevant stuff to the MoS. Is that okay?
Btw, the wiki plugin(?) for phpBB is broken, e.g. [wiki]Special:Allpages[/wiki] (or any other namespace except the default) doesn't work.
