→Article Titles are a Promise . . .: disambiguated ambiguous sentence
Please keep the following in mind as you choose a title for a new article:
* '''Seeing a title generates an expectation.''' When you see a link to [[Currier]], you have specific expectations to hear about the building, its history, etc. A title like [[My Dad]] declares the fact that it is not an article about something classically Williams, and so its content is alright where it is whereas if it would have to be moved from were under the title [[Morty Shapiro]] it would have to be moved (however amusingit would be).
* '''More general titles should name more general content.''' Thus [[Students with Skills]] is a page that covers general skills, as well as pointing to categories of skills, such as [[Students with Automotive Skills|automotive]] and [[Students with Body Skills|body]]. [[Pranks]] is and should always be an article about many pranks, not just one recent event.
* '''A title is the main idea of an article.''' Thus, an article simply titled [[Amherst]] should not go directly into a story about our rivalry, though it is likely to have a prominent section on it. If the rivalry topic became big enough, it could even become its own article, [[Rivalry with Amherst]].
