| A WikiName is any single word that can be used to identify a Wiki page. Such names are mainly lowercase but begin with a capital letter and contain some further embedded capitals. It's easiest to show this by example:
The following are all WikiNames:
JoeSmith WikiName AnotherVeryLongName Note that, by themselves, the following are not:
JSmith Wiki OOPSLA If you want to turn the above into WikiNames then you must surround them with % characters.
%JSmith% %Wiki% %OOPSLA%
When a WikiName appears in a page, its rendition will depend on whether an associated page yet exists for it in the current WikiWeb. If a page does exist then the name will appear as a standard hypertext link and this will take you to the new page if clicked. If no corresponding page exists then it will appear as:
ANonExistantPage? Clicking over the ? will bring up an editor allowing you to create a new linked page of that title.
