Help:Page name

From Wikicpa

Jump to: navigation, search

The page name is shown in large font as page header. Alternative names for this page (on most projects) are help:page name, help:Page name, Help:page name and Help:Page name, but not Help:Page Name

Restrictions

Special characters

The following characters are not allowed in page titles:

# + < > [ ] | { }

The non-printable characters with values 0 through 31, and the "delete" character 127, are also not allowed.

The reasons for disallowing these characters include:

  • [, ], {, }, and | have special meaning within Wiki CPA's syntax, which are processed before the pagename is determined. For example, [[{{CURRENTYEAR}}]] points at 2009, not a page called {{CURRENTYEAR}}.

Maximum page name length

The maximum page name length is 255 bytes (excluding the namespace prefix). Be aware that non-ASCII characters may take up to four bytes in UTF-8 encoding, so the total number of characters you can fit into a title may be less than 255 depending on the language it's in.
