MediaWiki naming conventions are naming conventions in MediaWiki.

Template:lowercase

This template makes the first letter in a page's title appear lowercase.

MediaWiki otherwise forces titles to start with an uppercase letter.

See Template:Lowercase @ MediaWiki

Template:Lowercase requires the ParserFunctions extension.

See: Extension:ParserFunctions @ MediaWiki.

Technical restrictions

Some page names are not possible because of limitations imposed by the MediaWiki software.

In some cases (such as names which should begin with a lowercase letter, like eBay), a template can be added to the article to cause the title header to be displayed as desired.

In other cases (such as names containing restricted characters) it is necessary to adopt and display a different title.
