Pages should be named with the following considerations in mind:
- Pages for WikiConference USA 2014 in New York City did not have year prefixes. During the archival process, pages were renamed to have a "2014/" prefix. Do not delete redirects, as we do not want to break any links.
- From 2015 on, all pages are named with yearly prefixes, e.g. "2015/Main Page". Creating pages in this naming format allows us to keep a permanent archive for each conference without breaking links and preventing the confusion caused by mixing old conference information with new conference information. Pages inadvertently created outside of this scheme should be promptly renamed. Templates will be used to strip the yearly prefix in the page name.
- For each year, update MediaWiki:Sidebar and MediaWiki:Mainpage for new pages for each year.
- Main Page and Home should be made into redirects for the current year's main page.
