==<span id="TITLES">Article titles</span>== {{Shortcut|BS:STYLE#TITLES}} Pages must have appropriate titles. Page names should always be exactly the same as the in-game name of the subject, except when multiple subjects have the same name (and thus [[Brighter Shores:Style guide/Disambiguation|disambiguation]] parentheses are required). In cases where other Fen Research sources are inconsistent with in-game names, in-game names and capitalisations should be used, with redirects utilised for other names. * Names, locations, and titles (like those of quests) should all be capitalised appropriately. * A rule of thumb for article titles is that they should match the in-game name: [[Lesser Eel]], [[Gray Eel]]. * Block capitals should not be used in titles: 'Article titles', not 'ARTICLE TITLES'. * Words such as articles (''a'',''an'', and ''the'') and short prepositions (e.g. ''in'', ''of'', ''from'') should be left uncapitalised, unless the first word of the title: [[Welcome to the Guard]], [[The Horn of Hopeport]]. Sometimes [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Page_title technical restrictions of MediaWiki] prevent editors naming pages after their in-game names In such cases, problem characters should be replaced with substitutes, or left out altogether. Generally, replace "|" with "-", and ":" in namespaces with "-"; leave out "#". The [[mw:Help:Magic words#DISPLAYTITLE|DISPLAYTITLE]] magic word should be used to display the correct, unmodified title. Additionally, in cases where the subject name contains a forward slash ("/"), this character will have a special meaning and incorrectly create a "subpage". These false subpages should be at the same name. In all cases, the {{T|Restricted title}} template should be used (and a brief explanation given) to mark the page as such.
