[opensuse-wiki] openSUSE Spelling and the new wiki
If I surf to http://wiki.opensuse.org/openSUSE_Test to create the page, I'll end add: http://wiki.opensuse.org/OpenSUSE_Test But openSUSE is always spelt with a lower case o - so how can I create a page called "openSUSE Test"? I'd like to have this solved for the wiki if possible. Btw. do our guidelines document that openSUSE is spelled always this way?

This would be a good thing to put on the FAQ page. On 04/22/2010 12:07 PM, Andreas Jaeger wrote:

You can use variable: {{DISPLAYTITLE:openSUSE Test}} http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Page_name section "Changing the displayed title". Although it will be better to have "openSUSE test" :)

It is, by turning off first letter capitalization. $wgCapitalLinks http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgCapitalLinks $wgCapitalLinkOverrides http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgCapitalLinkOverrides Above is probably used to make openSUSE: namespace properly spelled, without changing default MediaWiki behavior that can have as consequence a lot of broken links in articles. For example: [[switch runlevel]] as part of the sentence will link to article "Switch runlevel", but after overriding default it will link to "switch runlevel" that doesn't exist.

Yes. http://wiki.opensuse.org/Help:Style Not exactly easy to find, and ditto not easy to link. Filling Portal:Wiki with links will help, but one has to browse anyway. -- Regards Rajko, -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+help@opensuse.org

You could also use Template:Lowercase_title to decapitalize the title.

I amnot sure if we should change this, as the openSUSE: namespace already works with correct capitalization, and I don't think the will be many page starting with openSUSE in the main namespace. Those could use the Template:Lowercase_title to display correctly.

Even with Lowercase_title, we have something like: http://en.opensuse.org/OpenSUSE_Weekly_News/current: title: "openSUSE Weekly News/119" Text: "From openSUSE < OpenSUSE Weekly News(Redirected from OpenSUSE Weekly News/current)" - so the innerweb link uses the capitalization.

Hi, AFAIK, it is not possible to use lowercase in Mediawiki URL, but only to change title :/ I've added a note about lowercase title in http://wiki.opensuse.org/Help:Style#openSUSE_spelling Regards, R. On Fri, Apr 23, 2010 at 3:48 PM, Andreas Jaeger <aj@novell.com> wrote:

Could you take care to update the wiki help with tips how to do that as you and Thomas wrote? thanks for the information, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Program Manager openSUSE, aj@{novell.com,opensuse.org} Twitter: jaegerandi | Identica: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
