Is the article name correct? Shouldn't it be Supernatural Newsletter or spnnewsletter? --Doro 19:27, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

Yeah maybe. The problem with Supernatural Newsletter is that there has been more than one. I think this is an artifact from how this newsletter is linked from the newsletter comm list. There the defunct Supernatural newsletter (lj name sn_newsletter) is linked as SN Newsletter, which is makes sense as it looks better than the all lowercase which would without special measures look like Sn_newsletter in the wiki. As this one's LJ name is spnnewsletter the link was made analogous, treating the first part as acronym but this has no underscore, so no space and became the awkward looking SPNNewsletter.--RatCreature 21:03, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
I wasn't sure how to handle it so I just went by the premade link on newsletter comm list. I should take a look at the page naming guidelines! :) So should this be spnnewsletter or SPN Newsletter? Or something else? --Hermitsoul 23:28, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
I'd go with SPN Newsletter. I guess the all lowercase could be done with that displaytitle thing that changes the initial to lowercase, but I think the other looks better. I don't think there are specific guidelines for cases like this.--RatCreature 00:39, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
I just asked because the name SPNNewsletter doesn't appear anywhere on this page and I din't find it on the newsletter either. :) I would suggest the all lowercase version because that is the community name according to the URL or name it according to the name listed in the header of the community and include proper disambiguation like Supernatural Newsletter (spnnewsletter). ETA: The other newsletter could then be moved to Supernatural Newsletter (sn_newsletter). --Doro 07:20, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
The version with the LJ names in brackets would work for me too. Supernatural Newsletter would need to become a disambiguation in any solution, IMO, because both were called that, and you should be able to find either if you just look for "Supernatural Newsletter" via the search engine.--RatCreature 07:34, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
