That's how I think headings should be treated as well. Headings/titles should be all capitalised (except for minor words like 'and', 'of', etc) and main body text should flow without capitals for anything but proper nouns. A redirect shouldn't be necessary - just use the <nowiki>[[<link>|<link text>]]</nowiki> formatting. The problem is that we're having quite a few categories recently being created with lower-case headings and changing categories are a pain - I don't think redirects will work on them. That's why I want to get a standard established soon, to avoid difficult changes later on. - Wedge


When might be a good time for this discussion? I'm not sure if we're ever all on at the same time. - Wedge

Well... we'll manage something, I suppose. I'm just a little concerned about all these new categories... but then, category management was never a strong point for me, and nothing is really set in stone anyway, metaphorically speaking. - Wedge

Hello, Dundradal. Yup, trying to get back into the game a bit. I got your message, when's the next Wingnut meeting? I'll try my best to be there if I can make the time. I can see most of the most recent updates are from Privateer 2 and whatnot; I'm afraid I won't be much good to you guys in that department, I never did play Privateer. But if there's anything else major in the works, I'm wide open to lend a hand if I can.

OK, I've posted two pages in battles but I don't think I did it right as the content is not showing up under the battles Subcategories page, what am I doing wrong? "cheers in advance"

I believe the page to which you were referring regarding the novel/manual texts is the Hornet page (of course, the example page) http://www.wcnews.com/wcpedia/F-36_Hornet - Iceblade
