==Specific events==
When naming specific events, the most generally accepted convention is to use the name or description of the event, followed by a comma, and the year in which the event took place, e.g. [[Municipal elections, 1908]] or [[Streetcar operators' strike, 1908]]. If the event is so well-known or unique that it would not be confused with any other event, it may be acceptable to omit the year, e.g. [[Halloween Night Fire]].
==Roads, streets and other thoroughfares==
When naming an article about a road, street, or other thoroughfare, one should choose the most commonly used name as the name of the article. For instance, [[Interstate 110]] is also Florida State Road 8A — but it is much more commonly referred to by the former. Also, one should use the full form of a road's name as the article title, in lieu of any nicknames or short forms. For example: [[Interstate 10]] would be correct; [[I-10]] would not. [[Airport Boulevard]] would be correct; [[Airport Blvd]] would not. However, it is a good idea to create redirects to the main article using short forms or nicknames.
