"Merry Christmas" instead of "merry_christmas" in tag groups

Posted under General

Initially, this is just a report. I suppose it is uncontroversial enough, but it affects multiple pages, so people may want to comment, discuss, etc. Here it is:

  • When I create or expand a tag group, I format the tags with spaces instead of underlines; uppercase letters where applicable; and initial uppercase letters. Additionally, I organize the items into sublists separated by headers. I've been using this style consistently.

Examples:

A long time ago there was a bug that caused spaced links to not redirect correctly, leading to workarounds like [santa_claus|santa claus] or just using plain underscored links. No idea if that bug will reappear again, but it'll definitely make navigating the wikis more cumbersome if it did.

If you want to use spaced links, fine, but please don't go changing every wiki just because you like it that way.

Tag groups are essentially a list of tags, probably better to make it visually match that. Things like the list of characters in touhou and such, on the other hand, should be properly formatted.

The next time you want to make a tag link use sharp brackets around the tag. Square brackets essentially link you to wiki links, so the link between said brackets must use proper naming standards such as capitalization, e.g. M Bison not m_bison, because the latter would be m_bison.

A tag group and a list wiki is essentially the same format, you create wiki links on tagged items using proper naming standards.

Edit: I am still walking in your shoes as of now.
