+TWiki is linking topics automatically, provided you give a [[WikiTopic]] a name that follows the [[WikiNotation]]. It is a sequence of:
+
+* Uppercase letter(s)
+* Lowercase letter(s)
+* Uppercase letter(s)
+* Optional lowercase or uppercase letter(s) or number(s)
+
+Good examples for topic names:
+
+* [[TWikiWeb]]
+* [[GoodStyle]]
+* [[AVeryLongTWikiTopicNameIsAlsoPossible]]
+* [[ProblemY2K]]
+
+Bad examples for topic names:
+
+* Web: Name with no uppercase letter in between
+* T5Wiki: Name with number before the first lowercase letter
+* Know-How: Name with dashes in between
+
+Sometimes you have to be creative to find a good name for a [[WikiTopic]]. For example, if you want to create a topic about the year 2000 problem, you could go for [[FixY2K]] or [[YearTwoK]] or [[YearTwoThousand]], but not Year2K or Y2K or Y2000 as a topic name.
