Welcome to the Fedora wiki list! :D Now to business.
If I remember correctly, the general consensus on wiki page naming is 1. Use spaces 2. Use plain English, no abbreviating 3. Consider the page name the title of the page
At some point, before we can start relocalizing the wiki, we need to make sure pages are in the right place.
Here's my proposal:
1. We make a git repo, probably on Fedora People. 2. Each subproject gets its own CSV file in the repo. 3. All pages in a subproject's namespace in the wiki that need to be renamed will be listed in their file: OldName|New_page_name 4. Peer review will occur for sanity and guidelines-checking. 5. Eventually, by a set date (we hope), we'll give the files to Nigel and Wikibot and page names will be changed.
Questions, comments, rants?

It should be noted that the Packaging Committee don't want their pages (Packaging/*) to be fiddled with.
Ditto for Legal/*, Licensing/*, and a couple of FreeMedia pages.

We'll definitely be asking subprojects if the new page names are OK for them -- or at least, running it by them.

what about language specific pages like zh/*, we don't have the resource to build our own wiki.

They should be left as they would be migrated to a new l10n wiki (when we get to that point).

Correct. The purpose for moving the pages around is to get l10nable page names so that the l10n wikis can happen :)
