Article Titles are a Promise . . .: spelled morty's name right
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 were under the title [[Morty ShapiroSchapiro]] it would have to be moved (however amusing it 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]].
