Dont Name Pages Thoughts Issues Ideas Or Opinions

Try not to use the words "Thoughts", "Issues", "Ideas", or "Opinions" in the name of a Wiki page. Such words are almost always redundant. Are there really pages on this Wiki where ideas are off-topic?

There are two notable exceptions, however:

• When you're engaging in meta-discussion, it's often useful to use one of these words in the title. (This page uses all four.)
• The use of a Discussion page, when people would choose to leave the original page alone for various reasons. (Usually to keep the first page clear, for aesthetic reasons, or to help newbies.)
