Article names
Article names should follow this format:
Post:_<Post_title>_-_<Date>_-_
e.g. Post:Shadow Web Rewrite - 2/27/2009 - 19:55
- Post title should not contain "Re:"
- Date should be formatted as "MM/DD/YYYY"
- Time should be formatted as "HH:MM" (24 hour format), typically this time is in CST
Linking Posts to Pages
Use the PRel template (e.g. {{PRel|<page>}}) to link posts to existing pages, or if you do not wish to use a link you can include related pages in the subject list of the Post template.
A RefAl template with "p=y" (e.g. {{RefAl|p=y}}) can be used to allow searching for related posts at the bottom of a page.
