Wiki - Three simple rules to edit pages

Here are three simple rules when people should know who edit pages on our Wiki server (not the basecamp server):

WordsWithCapitalLetters: All words with embedded capital letters are automatically treated as links to other documents. In this case, wiki would initially show the word wordsWithCapitalLetters like so (WordsWithCapitalLetters)? and allow you to click the hyperlinked question mark to edit/create the page. Once created, wiki would show the word like WordsWithCapitalLetters. The rule goes: if the first lowercase letter is preceeded by an uppercase letter and the word has more uppercase letters following the first lowercase letter the word will be hyperlinked.

((words between double braces)): All words enclosed with double braces are automatically treated as links to other documents. In this case, wiki would initially show the expression ((words between double braces)) like so (words between double braces)? and allow you to click the hyperlinked question mark to edit/create the page. Once created, wiki would show the word like words between double braces

D''''''ontLinkThis, A''''''ndThis, APAL3Test, allOrNothing, APAL3T''''''estCase, APAL3isCool: The six single quotes rule can be used to stop wiki from hyperlinking expressions which should not be hyperlinked. In these examples, wiki would strip the six single quotes simply display: DontLinkThis, AndThis, APAL3Test, allOrNothing, APAL3TestCases, APAL3isCool. The rule goes: if the first lowercase letter is preceeded by an uppercase letter and the word has more uppercase letters following the first lowercase letter the word will be hyperlinked unless you insert six single quotes immediately preceeding the first lowercase letter.
