Natural-language naming of course, like in the Wikipedia we refer to quite 
often. I didn't want to copy/paste the standard Wikipedia editing tutorial 
here, so there are examples:

1. Creating new pages:
  [[FooBar]] -wrong
  [[Foo Bar]] -OK, now after saving changes, click on the (red) link and the 
new page will get "Foo_Bar" part of the url automatically (so spaces are 
translated to _). You can use [[Foo_Bar]] as well (by mistake or 
intentionally) - it's not a problem for the mediawiki engine.

Read more about links at [1]

2. Exception: class names, or any other identifiers, etc.
  [[KoShape]] - if you want to have a page name like this, not a problem

For anyone planning to contribute with larger content, I recommend reading thw 
whole document [2]
