TWiki is linking topics automatically, provided you give a WikiTopic a name that follows the WikiNotation. It is a sequence of:

  • Uppercase letter(s)
  • Lowercase letter(s)
  • Uppercase letter(s)
  • Optional lowercase or uppercase letter(s) or number(s)

Good examples for topic names:

  • TWikiWeb?
  • GoodStyle
  • AVeryLongTWikiTopicNameIsAlsoPossible?
  • ProblemY2K?

Bad examples for topic names:

  • Web: Name with no uppercase letter in between
  • T5Wiki: Name with number before the first lowercase letter
  • Know-How: Name with dashes in between

Sometimes you have to be creative to find a good name for a WikiTopic. For example, if you want to create a topic about the year 2000 problem, you could go for FixY2K? or YearTwoK? or YearTwoThousand?, but not Year2K or Y2K or Y2000 as a topic name.
