This is an instruction manual that addresses the conventions adopted by Wikisimpsons in writing, titles, articles, and linking. Please read it before you contribute to Wikisimpsons.
The conventions for titles dictate that all proper nouns are capitalized, as are all locations, and names unless specifically not capitalized.
Any page title that includes a name should not be stored in a biographical format; i.e., "Homer Simpson", not "Simpson, Homer" as the page title for Bart's Dad. In cases where only a first name (Charlie) exists, that should be used as the sole title of the page.
For a very minor character, a list would be fine, for a recurring character, the following is used.
A list of every Ulmann Short, Episode, Game, comic, and Movie this character appeared in.
