General Guide to Naming
The set of naming conventions below arises from this need for a minimal set of rules for editors to learn so we know how to best name our new articles, and how to link to where an article is ''or will be'' as we write body text.
==General Guide to Namingguideline==
Try first to choose the most general title that names the realm of your subject. However, if this general name is one that you do not expect that a Willipedian can write meaningfully about, choose a more specific title.
:''A good start:'' Think about your topic in the general sense. You are talking about two things: the practice of [[procrastinating]] and the topic "[[thesis]]." Start/edit an article with either name, and include what you want to write in a well-named section, even if it is a lonely section at first.
:''In the future:'' Others are likely to have something to say about "Procrastinating" or "Thesis". The articles are likely to cross-link. Over time, what you started will evolve into a rich article.
