template to notify folks about pages with confusing names (in progress)

New page

Hello {{{User}}},

Thanks for using [[Main Page|OpenWetWare]]! We hope you find it to your liking.

A quick suggestion - you might consider naming all of your lab pages in the form <code>{{{LabName}}}:XXX</code>. This lets you 'dewikify' the page. See [[Smolke]] vs [http://smolke.openwetware.org|the dewikified version] for example. (Generally, your lab home page can then be named <code>{{{LabName}}}</code>.)

It is best to avoid generic page names like <code>{{{CurrentPageName}}}</code>, since there can only be one page on OWW with a given name. Perhaps <code>{{{LabName}}}:{{{CurrentPageName}}}</code>?

See [[Help:Page naming conventions]] for general guidelines on how to name pages. To rename pages that you've already created, please see [[Help:Renaming pages]].

If you have any questions or need help, feel free to contact me on my talk page. Good luck!
