| 6 | You can create a new wiki page by typing the CamelCase name of the page in the quick-search field at the top of the page, or by trying to view a wiki page of that name (That is by visiting http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/MyNewWikiPage for example). But note that the page will effectively be "orphaned" unless you link to it from somewhere else. Alternatively: |

| 14 | == Rename a page #renaming |
| 15 | |
| 16 | While picking up good WikiPageNames is important, you can always change your mind |
| 17 | and rename the page later. |
| 18 | |
| 19 | You'll need to ask for the WIKI_RENAME permission in order to be allowed to do this. |
| 20 | When renaming a page, you'll be offered the possibility to create a redirection page, so that links pointing to the old location will not be left dangling. |
