Description (last modified by )
When you search for a Word in CamelCase you get redirected to create a"new Page".Please don't do that!(or at least provide a solution to remove it from the core-code manualy) 1. It makes problems with JavaClasses, WinAPI-Functions, … 2. It's neither professional nor elegant 3. …

Patch for no_camelcase (no more camel_sh*) As discussed in: #425 #476 #1490 #1604 #2526

in your trac.ini do
[wiki] no_camelcase = true
There should be a Script which converts all CamelCase (if there is a page
to it)
to [wiki:link]
and leave all others basicaly (Class Names etc.) alone…

Summary: | Search for Camelcase fails with newpage (ex. search forWikiFormatter) → Search for Camelcase ends upwith newpage (ex. search for WikiFormatter) |
Well, ignoring the offending tone of our anonymous reporter, this "feature" seems to be requested often enough (even in more polite manner) to be at least considered. While I'm not at all in this school of thought (to me, a wiki without CamelCase doesn't even look like a Wiki :) ), I think we could keep the discussion opened. That discussion is actually two fold:
- disable CamelCase entirely in the wiki (like the patch suggests)
- disable the quick jump to a Wiki page when a CamelCase word is entered. This is even considered as a feature by some, in order to be able to quickly create a new page (and of course, this is the best way to
end
up with orphaned pages…)
(/me cleaning up the description a bit…)
If you feel like dealing with this professionally you can search for the related existing tickets or ask on the MailingList or IrcChannel about this, however I don't intend to dignify this flamebait with a response.
