Page titles should be the full name of the individual, both first, last, and any indicators of rank (senior, junior, the third) as necessary.

===Redirects===
When they are unique, redirects should be present for the first name alone, as well as any well known nicknames or titles ("The Reedemeer" for example). In the rare case where the first names are not unique, disambigous pages should be set up.

Each page should be entered into the proper catagory for the NPCs race (or placed in [[:Category:Unknown Race]] when unavailable), subrace (River Elf, etc), guild (known and applicable), any group affiliation (such as [[Moon Mage Sect]]), and shop owner if applicable.
