| | 2 | = !CamelCase |
| | 3 | |
| | 4 | New wiki links are automatically created when concatenating capitalized words, such that for example the words 'Camel' and 'Case' concatenated form a link to this CamelCase page. |
| | 5 | |
| | 6 | !CamelCase is the original wiki convention for creating hyperlinks, with the additional requirement that the capital letters are followed by a lower-case letter; hence "AlabamA" and "ABc" will not be links. |

| | 8 | == Customizing the Wiki behavior |
| | 9 | |
| | 10 | While Trac remains faithful to the original Wiki style, it also provides a number of ways to accommodate users with different preferences: |
| | 11 | * To prevent the creation of a link for the CamelCase word, prefix the word with an exclamation mark (`!`): `!CamelCase`. |
| | 12 | * By default a CamelCase word with no corresponding Wiki page will be rendered as a gray link followed by a question mark. This is useful for example when the CamelCase style is used to name code artefacts like class names, and a Wiki page is expected to exist to document each class. The behavior can be configured through the [TracIni#wiki-ignore_missing_pages-option "[wiki] ignore_missing_pages"] option in TracIni. |
| | 13 | * To automatically insert space characters between the words of a CamelCase link when rendering the link, enable [TracIni#wiki-split_page_names-option "[wiki] split_page_names"] of TracIni. |
| | 14 | * Creation of explicit Wiki links is also easy, see WikiPageNames for details. |
| | 15 | * Wiki formatting can be disabled completely in some places, for example when rendering commit log messages. See the [TracIni#changeset-wiki_format_messages-option "[wiki] wiki_format_messages"] option in TracIni. |

| | 17 | See TracIni for more information on the available options. |
