-Wiki page names are written using CamelCase. Within a wiki text, any word in CamelCase automatically becomes a hyperlink to the wiki page with that same name.
+Wiki page names commonly use the CamelCase convention. Within wiki text, any word in CamelCase automatically becomes a hyperlink to the wiki page with that name.

+CamelCase page names must follow these rules:
 
  1. The name must consist of '''alphabetic characters only'''. No digits, spaces, punctuation, or underscores are allowed.
- 1. A name must have at least two capital letters.
- 1. The first character must be capitalized.
- 1. Every capital letter must be followed by one or more lower-case letters. 
- 1. The use of slash ( / ) is permitted to create a hierarchy inside the wiki.  (See !SubWiki and !ParentWiki macros in the [http://projects.edgewall.com/trac/wiki/MacroBazaar MacroBazaar] which provide a way to list all sub-entries and a link up the hierarchy respectively.)
+ 2. A name must have at least two capital letters.
+ 3. The first character must be capitalized.
+ 4. Every capital letter must be followed by one or more lower-case letters. 
+ 5. The use of slash ( / ) is permitted in page names (possibly representing a hierarchy).
 
-If you want to create a wiki page that doesn't follow CamelCase rules you could use the following syntax:
+If you want to create a wiki page that doesn't follow CamelCase rules you can use the following syntax:
 {{{
-[wiki:Wiki_page]

+   and with a label: [wiki:ISO9000 ISO 9000 standard]
+ * [wiki:"Space Matters"]

+ * or simply: ["WikiPageName"]s
+ * even better, the new [[WikiCreole link style]]
+   and with a label: [[WikiCreole link style|WikiCreole style links]]
 }}}
 
 This will be rendered as:
- [wiki:Wiki_page]
+ * [wiki:Wiki_page], [wiki:ISO9000],
+   and with a label: [wiki:ISO9000 ISO 9000 standard]
+ * [wiki:"Space Matters"] ''(that page name embeds space characters)''
+   and with a label: [wiki:"Space Matters" all about white space]
+ * or simply: ["WikiPageName"]s ''(old !MoinMoin's internal free links style)''
+ * even better, the new [[WikiCreole link style]]
+   and with a label: [[WikiCreole link style|WikiCreole style links]]
+   ''(since 0.12, also now adopted by !MoinMoin)''
 
+
+Starting with Trac 0.11, it's also possible to link to a specific ''version'' of a Wiki page, as you would do for a specific version of a file, for example: WikiStart@1.
+
+You can also prevent a CamelCase name to be interpreted as a TracLinks, by quoting it. See TracLinks#EscapingLinks.
+
+As visible in the example above, one can also append an anchor to a Wiki page name, in order to link to a specific section within that page. The anchor can easily be seen by hovering the mouse over a section heading, then clicking on the [[html(¶)]] sign that appears at its end. The anchor is usually generated automatically, but it's also possible to specify it explicitly: see WikiFormatting#using-explicit-id-in-heading.
