The following points are used in deciding on questions not covered by the five principles; consistency on these helps avoid duplicate articles:
; * Keep titles short but descriptive. ; * No two page titles should have the same title.; * The first letter of every word should be capital, except for prepositions, articles, etc.; * In general only create page titles that are in the singular, unless that term is always in a plural form in English or it is valid to use in an IMSMA context like Sub-Themes, Customise Views, localisation files, etc.; * Acronyms should be used in a page name if the subject is known primarily by its abbreviation and that abbreviation is primarily associated with the subject, otherwise avoid using Acronyms. All acronyms will be in the glossary.; * Titles cannot begin with a lowercase letter.; * Titles cannot contain certain restricted characters (e.g # < > [ ] | { } : ) and encoded characters (%, /) as well.; * MediaWiki treats Spaces ( ) and underscores (_) are equivalently. Underscores are used in URL and Spaces in displayed titles, there is no need to add underscore in the page titles.; * Titles should not include question marks.; * Titles cannot contain 3 or more contiguous tildes ([[User:Dionysia|Dionysia]]), as strings of tildes are used to create editors' signatures on talk pages.; * It is not possible for a title as stored in the database to contain formatting, such as italics or bolding. The double or triple apostrophes normally used to produce these effects in wikitext are treated just as groups of apostrophes if they appear in titles but avoid apostrophes and quotes unless absolutely required.; * Titles cannot contain images.
