The follow page creates guidelines for the systematic names of articles.
Capitalization
The search engine is case-sensitive. Like in normal English usage, all proper nouns should be capitalized.
- For theorems and axioms, capitalize all non-trivial words, e.g. Law of Cosines, Law of Definite Proporitions, Shoelace Theorem, Axiom of Choice.
- Capitalize all important words in a term involving a proper noun, e.g. Riemann Hypothesis and Euler's Polyhedron Theorem.
- Do not capitalize anything else.
- If in doubt, contact an sysop.

Contests
For contest pages, the year should go before the contest name. If there is a compilation sheet of all of the problems, it should be located at YYYY Contest Problems. All of the solutions go to subpages at YYYY Contest Problems/Problem #. The answer key goes to YYYY Contest Answer Key.
Sections
Every non-trivial word in a section header should be captitalized without exception, like the title of a book.
