QBWiki talk:Naming conventions

Perhaps we should include a note about the way to distinguish a college from the state it is in; for example, the page called Missouri for is distinguished from the page called Missouri (state). This seems like a reasonable convention I think we could include, though I'm not sure how many other state/college pairs have this ambiguity. Alex Dzurick 03:39, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

I'd think a majority of states at least have the potential for this conflict; would a better solution be to create the pages for the discussion of high school quizbowl as Missouri High School Quizbowl or something of the sort?--Fred Morlan 00:35, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

Re: Number of names, I think it's perfectly ok for things to have multiple names when it serves a historical function. (As it does for Maggie Walker, which was not known by that name in the 1990s.) Also, on a wiki it's very easy to make sure the links go to the right place with the | function: Governor's School-- Jeff Hoppes 00:39, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
