What's the correct naming for [[ArmA 2]] in wiki? If you check [[:Category:ArmA_2]] there's ''ArmA 2'', ''Arma 2'' and ''ArmA2'' being used. Also ''ARMA 2'' is often used outside the wiki. [http://www.bistudio.com/developers-blog/arma-2-the-name-tale_en.html ARMA 2 - The Name Tale] article doesn't give definitive answer either except that long name, ''Armed Assault 2'' shouldn't be used at all.

Anyways we should stick to one short name whichever it is. --[[User:Rok|Rok]] 17:11, 31 July 2009 (CEST)

:In early September 2007 [[User:Maruk|Maruk]] created a category called [[:Category:Arma_2|Arma 2]]. Also in May of this year [[User:Suma|Suma]] created a [[Template:arma2|template for the Arma 2]] name which returned the name Arma 2, but since then someone else modified it to return ARMA 2. Seeing as both [[User:Maruk|Maruk]] and [[User:Suma|Suma]] called it Arma 2, my guess is that's the way it should be written. --[[User:MSG Trit|MSG Trit]] 20:22, 31 July 2009 (CEST)

Could we expand this list somewhat (go a bit more into detail)? So that something like the mess with my lists [Actions] & [EventHandlers] won't happen again...;) --Kronzky 00:48, 23 July 2006 (CEST)

We can. --Djura 19:45, 23 July 2006 (CEST)

Proper examples of naming

Operation Flashpoint: Actions List
Template:Box File
Template:Infobox squad
Category:Scripting Topics
Category:Armed Assault: Editing

</draft>

How about adding the entries for Arma2/ArmaII ... which one is more 'correct' ? According to the devlopers blog at BI Website, both are fine. Whats your take? --Vigilante 17:27, 15 June 2009 (CEST)

ArmA 2

What's the correct naming for ArmA 2 in wiki? If you check Category:ArmA_2 there's ArmA 2, Arma 2 and ArmA2 being used. Also ARMA 2 is often used outside the wiki. ARMA 2 - The Name Tale article doesn't give definitive answer either except that long name, Armed Assault 2 shouldn't be used at all. Anyways we should stick to one short name whichever it is. --Rok 17:11, 31 July 2009 (CEST)

In early September 2007 Maruk created a category called Arma 2. Also in May of this year Suma created a template for the Arma 2 name which returned the name Arma 2, but since then someone else modified it to return ARMA 2. Seeing as both Maruk and Suma called it Arma 2, my guess is that's the way it should be written. --MSG Trit 20:22, 31 July 2009 (CEST)
