===Titles===
*The title of your article should usually just be the title of the thing you're writing about
*Use title case for the title
**This means capitalization of all words, except for internal articles, prepositions and conjunctions (eg in/the/a/is/if/to)
**Example: The Vitamins Are in My Fresh Brussels Sprouts
**Example: Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories
**Example: Welcome to the
*Where something has its own capitalisation and punctuation (such as a mission or game name) then use the real format rather than title case
**Example: [[In The Beginning...]]
===Disambiguations===
*Where you have more than one article with the same name, put something in brackets to separate them
**Example: [[GTA San Andreas Cheats (PC)]] and [[GTA San Andreas Cheats (PS2)]]
**If one article is a lot more important than another, only add brackets onto the less popular one
***Example: [[Big Smoke]] and [[Big Smoke (Mission)]]
***But link to both articles to each other at the top of both pages
*If you have more than 2 articles with similar names, you need a disambiguation page which simply links to all the pages with a similar name
**Example: [[In The Beginning...]] links to [[In The Beginning (GTA VC)]] and [[In The Beginning (GTA SA)]] etc
