:I see the added benefit to changing to the new page, is there a way to redirect traffic automatically to those who still land on the current homefront page? It has been linked in alot of place, stored as bookmarks perhaps. [[User:Ellis Ofsol|Ellis Ofsol]] ([[User talk:Ellis Ofsol|talk]]) 07:35, 20 August 2025 (UTC)

:No, not a good idea.

:This is a wiki and not a regular website. So reason for not moving is: Wiki page titles should be singular, sentence case with a few exceptions. The Uni wiki is largely following wikipedia's MoS and the [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Article titles#Article title format|Article title format]] section on [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Article titles|Article titles]] does apply. Why using singular, sentence case? the page title is also used to wiki link to a page. So the title must be usable mid sentence. Links are case sensitive with the exemption of the first char.

:Example: xxx is a [[homefront operation]]. coded as <code>xxx is a <nowiki>[[homefront operation]]</nowiki></code>

:For plural linking the wiki has the link end trick. Tacking chars to the closing ]] of a link lets them be part of the link description.

:Example: [[Homefront operation]]s are PvE. coded as <code><nowiki>[[Homefront operation]]s are PvE.</nowiki></code>
