Wikipedia:Creating Lojban articles
From Wikipedia
This article has been written in English specially for being maximally understandable.
It concerns the style of naming Lojban articles here.
Please remember that:
- If your article is not about something called by a proper name, then the title of the article should be a selbri, not sumti, i. e. {xamsi}, and not {lo xamsi} or {le xamsi}, {citri lo glibau} and not {lo citri be lo glibau} etc. The one exception is the usage of {pe}-like constructs which are not compatible with selbri. In these cases {lo} is allowed: {lo mapku pe la djan}.
- Names of people and geographical objects (except those having corresponding gismu) must be lojbanized: {albanias}, {mosKUAS} etc.
- Names of non-Lojban software products, companies, books, films etc. must remain original unless they, including their names, have been translated to Lojban. So: {Microsoft}, {Windows}, {The Thirteenth Warrior}, {Heroes of Might and Magic}, {Hasbro} and so on.
- There must not be pause periods in front or the end of the article name! {lojban}, and not {lojban.}, {alybamas} and not {.alabamas.}.
- {la}, {lai} and {doi} are prohibited in lojbanized names according to the CLL.
