:::For this particular guide, I think the way it was before would be better, possibly with changes like "CTF 2fort" to get rid of the lowercase and underscore (the in-game text is in all caps anyway). I say that because by putting the gamemode as an addendum after the map name, it's possible that new players could look at "Hydro (TC)" and think there's another map named Hydro but under a different game mode. The old format avoids this. With maps like Well, where there actually are CP and CTF versions sharing the name, this isn't a problem, but with others it could be misleading. But then, this isn't a huge issue, and if there were other reasons that made the new format more feasible, then I say go for it.

The map names should be whatever the games says they are ingame, not shortforms, or internal filenames.  We try to stick to whatever the designers want it to be called (or something like that).  Also, if the names are commonly used and searched for, even if not shown ingame, it should be included on the page somewhere. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 21:26, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

:Okay, the "ctf_well" style page names are back. I also updated the ToC to reflect the actual map names. If any of the map names are wrong (I tried to remember exactly how they were) then let me know. Or just move them to the right name. ;) - [[User:Najzere|<span style="color:#909090">najzere</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Najzere|<span style="color:#993300">T</span>]]</sup> 17:55, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
